Based on the 2003 motion picture of the same name, the Broadway musical Elf is a modern-day Christmas classic. Currently traveling across the country on a two-month tour, the production stars Buddy, who as a child crawled into Santa’s bag of gifts and was mistakenly brought back to the North Pole. Years later, after realizing he’s an ordinary human, he heads back to New York City in search of his biological family, only to discover that he must now convince them to believe in the spirit of Christmas. Directed by Sam Scalamoni, the musical includes choreography by Connor Gallagher and songs by Tony Award nominees Matthew Sklar and Chad Beguelin.
