“I just like to smile, smiling’s my favorite!”
I’m so excited for this post because let’s be real: ELF totally wins the best Christmas movie ever, right? But what could be better than a movie? A LIVE PERFORMANCE including Buddy the Elf brought to life on stage, in musical form! Talk about a dream come true 😉
Everyone’s favorite ELF will be coming to Detroit to the Fox Theatre Dec. 20 – Dec. 24 as part of the Fifth Third Bank Fox Theatre Series. I have the scoop, a discount code + a giveaway for tickets below.
ABOUT THE SHOW
ELF is the hilarious tale of Buddy, a young orphan child who mistakenly crawls into Santa’s bag
of gifts and is transported back to the North Pole. Unaware that he is actually human, Buddy’s
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, discover his
true identity, and help New York remember the true meaning of Christmas. This modern day
Christmas classic is sure to make everyone embrace their inner ELF.
Based on the beloved 2003 New Line Cinema hit, ELF features songs by Tony Award nominees
Matthew Sklar (The Wedding Singer) and Chad Beguelin (Disney’s Aladdin, The Wedding
Singer), with a book by Tony Award winners Thomas Meehan (Annie, The Producers,
Hairspray) and Bob Martin (The Drowsy Chaperone). The production features direction by Sam
Scalamoni and choreography by Connor Gallagher.

“We elves try to stick to the four main food groups: candy, candy canes, candy corns and syrup.”
My favorite quote is when he tells Santa that he smells like beef and cheese.
Oh so many…”Have you seen these toilets, they’re ginormous!”; “You’re not Santa, you smell like beef and cheese!”; “The best way to spread Christmas cheer is signing loud for all to hear!”
Answers phone, “buddy the elf, what’s your favorite color?”
Buddy the elf, what’s your favorite color?
“I just like to smile.”
I don’t have a favorite but I know that my daughter would love this show!!
I have never seen Elf, so I don’t have a favorite quote. But the show definitely sounds like an experience that my daughter and I would enjoy together.
Love the “You aren’t Santa, you smell like beef and cheese”!!!
