A YouTube video featuring the stars of the Broadway holiday show ‘Irving Berlin’s White Christmas’ in a spoof of ‘The Dark Knight’ is fast making the rounds.

We realize it’s really just a giant video advertisement for the musical, which ran in Los Angeles in 2005. Still, it’s quite clever and fun.

Watch for cameo appearances by Patti LuPone and Laura Benanti of ‘Gypsy,’ Brian D’Arcy James of ‘Shrek the Musical’ and Marc Kudisch of the upcoming ‘9 to 5: The Musical,’ the show based on the Dolly Parton film that had its pre-Broadway run at the Ahmanson Theatre in Los Angeles.
