The holidays are a time for family and togetherness. I love finding fun-filled holiday events and creating traditions I know we’ll all want to celebrate for years to come. Looking to start your own family traditions or maybe add in some new ones? How about seeing a live holiday show that everyone will enjoy this Christmas? National Youth Theater’s incredible live performance of Elf, The Musical, is sure to be just that. You already know the movie- it’s a holiday favorite. This live musical rendition based on the beloved film will have you smiling, singing, and holding tight to the ones you love this Christmas. What could be better than enjoying an evening of laughs and music together with your family this season?
Join in the Fun
Elf is the hilarious tale of Buddy, a young orphan child who mistakenly crawls into Santa’s bag of gifts and is transported back to the North Pole. Unaware that he is actually human, Buddy is raised among the elves. Eventually, his enormous size and poor toy-making abilities cause him to face the truth about who he really is. With Santa’s permission, Buddy embarks on a journey to New York City to find his birth father, discover his true identity, and help New York remember the true meaning of Christmas.
Hilarious and Heartwarming
Join National Youth Theater for a little bit of Christmas cheer this December. You’ll definitely find yourself in the holiday spirit as you sit back and enjoy the hilarious antics of everyone’s favorite elf, Buddy, in Elf, The Musical. This modern day Christmas classic is sure to make everyone embrace their inner Elf. After all, the best way to spread Christmas Cheer is by singing loud for all to hear!
