The Cazenovia Junior High School Drama Club will present “Elf Jr., the Musical,” for its fall performance Nov. 2 to 4.
“Elf Jr., the Musical,” based on the hit movie, features songs by Tony Award-nominees Matthew Sklar and Chad Beguelin, with a book by Tony Award-winners Thomas Meehan and Bob Martin.
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 that his half-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.
Performances will be at 4:30 p.m., Thursday, Nov. 2; at 7 p.m. Friday, Nov. 3; and at 2 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 4. All performances are in the Cazenovia High School auditorium.
Tickets can be purchased online at Cazenoviacsd.com by clicking on the Fine Arts Department page and going to Jr. High Drama Club. Tickets also can be purchased by phone at 315-655-5309.
