Embrace your inner-Elf and join us to bring out your Christmas Cheer!

Buddy, a young orphan mistakenly crawls into Santa's bag of gifts and is transported to the North Pole. The would-be elf is raised unaware that he is actually a human, until his enormous size and poor toy-making abilities cause him to face the truth. With Santa's permission, Buddy embarks on a journey to New York City to find his birth father and discover his true identity. Faced with the harsh reality that his father is on the naughty list, and his step-brother doesn't even believe in Santa, Buddy is determined to win over his new family and help New York remember the true meaning of Christmas.

Simply fantastic! It was so professional and up to the standard of any West End show. The actors were brilliant, true stars - their musicality and dancing was fab. All in all we were blown away by it.
