    What is Elf! The Musical about?

    Based on the 2003 hit Christmas film starring Will Ferrell, the musical tells the story of Buddy, who mistakenly crawled into Santa’s bag of gifts one Christmas Eve. Santa, unaware, takes him back to the North Pole where Buddy is raised as an elf. He grows up not knowing he is human, but his enormous size and poor toy making skills make him face his reality. Fearing he’ll never fit in, Buddy heads to New York City to find his birth father and discover himself, whilst helping New York remember the true meaning of Christmas.
