Elf – the Musical
Bring the entire family to see this perfect feel-good show.
It will turn even the grumpiest of grinches into a happy-
go-lucky bearer of Christmas cheer, singing loud for all to
hear. The show starts off with William “Buddy” Hobbes, an
infectiously-cheerful wannabe elf. Buddy grew up with jolly
old St. Nick. Based on the hilarious 2003 Will Ferrell movie,
Elf is one of those rare holiday shows that will have both
kids and adults lighting up with laughter, humming tunes
like “A Christmas Song” and “Sparklejollytwinklejingley” for
days and rediscovering what it means to be a family. From
Paramount’s two-story Christmas tree in the lobby, to the
thousands of sparkling lights adorning the banisters, to the
carolers filling the air with song, you can’t help but get into
the spirit. Please note: suggested Rating: G. Children ages 2 and under are
not permitted in the theatre. Enjoy lunch on your own at Leland’s Legends,
just a short walk from the Paramount before the 1:30 pm show. Trip includes
transportation and show. Deadline: 12/15. (DR)
