Based on the hit Will Ferrell movie, Elf has quickly entered the pantheon of holiday classics, and for good reason. This warm-hearted family musical tells the story of Buddy, a human accidentally transported to the North Pole as a baby who grows up believing himself to be an elf, despite his large size and sub-par toy-making. Upon learning the truth from Santa, Buddy journeys to New York to find his father and help the jaded city folk rediscover the wonder and joy of the Christmas season.
Featuring Patricia Hurley (Mary Poppins), Kevin McAllister (Annie), Nova Y. Payton (Godspell), David Schlumpf, and Bobby Smith (On The Town)
