Claus the Musical premieres in England

December 14, 2022 @ 8:00 am - January 8, 2023 @ 5:00 pm CST

How the Boy became a Man. How the Man became a Legend.

From the writer of The Wonderful Wizard of Oz comes the world premiere of Claus The Musical. Based on the beloved children’s book The Life and Adventures of Santa Claus by L. Frank Baum, this brand-new musical is as magical as Christmas itself.

With spellbinding songs from Andy Collyer, heart-warming storytelling, enchanting sets, and a whole load of festive fun, discover the story of Claus and how he became a man forever in our hearts, and on Christmas Eve, forever in our skies.

Abandoned as a baby in the magical Forest of Burzee, he is gifted to Necile, a wood nymph, who showers him with love and names him Claus.  With a helping hand from the mystical inhabitants of the forest – Fairies, Knooks and Ryls – she teaches him that kindness is the most important lesson of all, a gift that Claus eventually shares with us, as he embarks on a journey to bring the miracle of Christmas to the whole world.

Kate Golledge directs, while the show has musical direction by Alex Beetschen, set and costume design by Stewart J Charlesworth, lighting by Aaron J Dootson, casting by Jane Deitch, sound design by Andrew Johnson, and choreography by Lucinda Lawrence. The piece is produced by Katy Lipson for Aria Entertainment and co-produced by Jason Haigh-Ellery.
