'Elf The Musical' Coming To Beck Center

LAKEWOOD, OH — The beloved "Elf the Musical" will be performed at the Beck Center for the Arts this holiday season.

The show will premiere Dec. 3 and performances will continue through Jan. 2, 2022. All shows will be held in the Senney Theater. "Elf" will be directed by Scott Spence, with musical direction by Larry Goodpaster and choreography by Martín Céspedes.

"It's always a special moment when a very popular movie makes its transition to live theatre in a triumphant way. Elf, The Musical does just that as it captures the whimsy, magic and heart of the Will Ferrell modern day classic, all the while adding the festive vocals and dance you'd expect in a holiday musical. With a cast of 30, Beck Center is thrilled to do our part to eclipse the darkness that surrounds us by delivering Buddy the Elf's special brand of human spirit rekindling. It really IS perfect for the entire family," Spence said.
