APA's OFFICIAL Fall/Winter 2023 MUSICAL!
Based on the beloved holiday film, this hilarious fish-out-of-water comedy follows Buddy the Elf in his quest to find his true identity. This modern-day holiday classic is sure to make every young performer embrace his or her “inner elf” with plenty of large ensemble numbers featuring elves and (New Yorkers) of every type.
The performance (date TBD) in December will be sure to get everyone in the holiday spirit!
