Watch The Mistle-Tones

Actresses Tia Mowry and Tori Spelling are featured in this fun, family oriented musical. This is the classic plot of good verses evil, toned down for family viewing. The music numbers are enchanting and the choreography is endearing. Holly, played by Mowry, is ready to try out for the music group the Snow Belles that was founded by her mother who is now passed away. She has waited for years for an opening to come up in this elite group, and the time has finally arrived. It has been her life long dream to be a part of this exclusive group that her mother had established so many years ago.

The evil Marci, played by Spelling, is in charge of the Snow Belles and votes in her girlfriend even though Holly had a much better audition. She also twists the arms of the other members of the group to vote in her girlfriend instead of Holly. Disappointed, Holly decides to start her own group. She speaks with the mall owner and convinces him to give her group an audition for the upcoming annual Christmas show.

The mall owner decides not only to let her group audition for the spot, but comes to the conclusion that he should open it up to any group that might be interested. This decision not only increases the competition, but also increases the traffic in the mall immensely, which increases sales.

Holly gets three of her co-workers to step up and join her on this adventure, but they are not quite getting it. The dance steps seem awkward and the group seems to be missing something. Then one night she finds out that her boss sings Karaoke and has the charisma of a knight in shining armor with the audience. She just might have found the answer she has been looking for. Now she just has to talk her boss into helping her group with their routine.
