Directors Karen Eremin and T.J. Larke, along with producer Ronda Barber, were so proud of their casts in last summer’s two tremendously popular shows, Shrek, The Musical in July and Spring Awakening in August, that they began thinking about a holiday show in early August.
Twenty-five intrepid students, aged 5-17 registered for the program and entertained friends and family with a musical comedy version of the classic Will Ferrell film Elf.
Step It Up’s rendition of Elf, Jr. is a shorter version of the same show presently playing at Madison Square Garden. It features musical direction of an eight piece orchestra by Ben Kohn of Washingtonville.
Elf, The Musical, Jr. is presented through special arrangement with Music Theatre International (MTI).
