After more than a decade, veteran stage, screen and television actor Ellen Travolta is retiring from the holiday show she created at the Coeur d’Alene Resort.

Fans and friends can buy tickets now to the annual cabaret, which runs Thursdays through Sundays, Nov. 24-Dec. 17, in the resort’s Shore Room.

In addition to a selection of stories from area audience members, Travolta is rounding up a list of surprise special guests to join her on stage.
