Elf, the hit Hollywood blockbuster movie has been supersized into a live arena spectacular for this Christmas. With a massive stage featuring amazing film backdrops on a huge led screen, plus a mobile stage that travels the auditorium, everyone gets a close-up view of the action.
The presentation features Santa’s flying sleigh, an audience snowball fight, indoor snowstorm, a giant candy cane journey from the North Pole, aerial cirque stars and giant tv screens so you don’t miss any of the spectacle.
The creative team behind ELF The Musical
The show is produced and directed by legendary panto and musical comedy producer Jon Conway, for The World’s Biggest Productions Limited.
With a book by Bob Martin and Thomas Meehan (Annie, The Producers and Hairspray) and an original score of great songs by Matt Sklar and Chad Beguelin that has delighted audiences on both Broadway and the West End. As Buddy the Elf might say, “you’d have to be a cotton-headed ninny-muggins” to miss this feel-good festive extravaganza.
The large cast is headed by Jordan Conway, who is stepping into the big floppy shoes of Will Ferrell as Buddy the Elf. Jordan is one of the UK’s most exciting rising talents, fresh from playing Charlie Chaplin in London and Los Angeles in the acclaimed comedy play ‘Laurel and Chaplin-The Feud’. Last panto season he was seen flying high as Peter Pan opposite Boy George in a spectacular arena tour.
The cast also features Kelly Banlaki as Buddy’s love interest, Jovie and Barry Bloxham as Buddy’s long-suffering dad.
Jordan Conway says, “Elf is always one of the most popular holiday films and Buddy The Elf is a truly iconic character. This is the first time this hit show has toured theatres and we promise a heart-warming and hilarious night out with great special effects. One of the best sights is the audiences dressing up for the show, especially the dads in Elf Christmas sweaters. This is an unmissable treat.”
