Join our Y Arts friends as they dive into the Christmas season with “Elf Jr, the Musical!”  Buddy the Elf (Ronan Cullina) and Santa (Sarah Harris) lead a cast and crew of 50+ youth in this hysterical holiday adventure.

Songs by Tony Award-nominees, Matthew Sklar and Chad Beguelin, with a book by Tony Award-winners, Thomas Meehan and Bob Martin.

If you aren’t familiar with the story line, here goes: Buddy, a young orphan, mistakenly crawls into Santa's bag of gifts and is transported to the North Pole. The would-be elf is raised, unaware that he is actually a human, until his 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 and discover his true identity. Faced with the harsh reality that his father is on the naughty list and that his half-brother doesn't even believe in Santa, Buddy is determined to win over his new family and help New York remember the true meaning of Christmas.

Performances are at the Lincoln Theater, 2 Theater St., Damariscotta on Saturday, Dec. 1 at 5 p.m. and Sunday, Dec. 2 at 1 p.m. All tickets are general admission and are $5.
