Why see Elf?

Christmas Fun

Based on the Will Ferrell movie, Elf: The Musical has become a theatrical Christmas tradition in its own right. A Juletide tale for all the family, Elf follows Buddy the Elf, who doesn't quite fit in with his fellow elf at the North Pole. Turns out, he's actually a human, who crawled into Santa's sack one night. So he journeys from the North Pole all the way to the Big Apple to find his dad, and help some New Yorkers discover the real meaning of Christmas along the way!

Originally debuting on Broadway in 2010, this heartwarming show boasts a stocking full of singalong numbers, including 'World's Greatest Dad,' 'There is a Santa Claus,' and I'll Believe in You.'

Spreads Holiday Cheer with Every Note

"Elf: The Musical" is a joyous spectacle that earns its five stars with ease. Max Chernin shines as Buddy the Elf, infusing the stage with infectious energy. Jim Bray's dual roles as Mr. Greenway/Santa are doubly delightful, and Sean Allen Krill's standout performance as Walter Hobbs adds to the brilliance. The entire cast's talent, coupled with charming choreography, creates an unforgettable holiday experience. A magical escapade filled with laughter, heartwarming moments, and festive spirit - a must-see for a perfect dose of seasonal cheer! ... Read more

Christopher Sutton is sensational in Elf

I loved Chris in The Buddy Holly Story and now he's Buddy again in Elf. Chris possesses a character with body movements and facial expressions that convince us that we're privileged to get to share in the story and make it part of our own legacy. I honestly didn't know what to expect with this show...and in fact were prepared to be ho-hummed as we were with the movie Elf. But we loved it because of the energy and sheer joy that is on stage. It's a holiday show that delivers and will endure, I'm sure. I'm planning to see it again and will bring a few fairy-tale loving friends with me. ... Read more
