Xmas in Las Vegas has music by Tony Finno, lyrics by Larry Rosler, with a book by Joe Bravaco, based on the play by Jack Richardson.

The musical, according to press notes, is the "story of Edward T. Wellspot, a gambler who comes to the Olympus Hotel and Casino each Christmas, hoping to beat the house. This year Edward has more problems than usual. He’s on the biggest losing streak of his life and his family is more dysfunctional than ever. All seems hopeless until he meets the mysterious Mrs. Periapt, who has the Midas touch. Suddenly, the world is Edward’s oyster—or so it seems."

The score "captures the spirit of the Rat Pack era." Scott Ethier serves as musical director.
