“Do You Believe in Magic” Holiday Show 2026

NextStage Productions delves into the magical world of the holidays with a new magical twist. After working in the toy shop and singing “Elves Just Want to Have Fun”, two Elves leave the North Pole to discover their true purpose. The Elves stand in awe as the cast creates the “Downtown” hustle and bustle of the city, rings the tones of “Silver Bells” and expresses the joy of walking in “A Winter Wonderland”. They even witness a “Jingle Bell Challenge”.

But not everyone is allowed to enjoy the merriment. The Elves follow Grannie home where the Elves reveal their true purpose- to help Grannie discover there is no age limit to believing in magic.

Directed by Kathryn Adkins and Camille Couture.
