THE NEW YORK TIMES

“Elf the Musical Lands on the VERY, VERY NICE LIST! The show has CRACKED THE CODE OF ALL-AGES COMEDY, the kind that will leave children and grown-ups equally helpless with laughter.”

THE NEW YORK TIMES

“Starring an EXUBERANT GREY HENSON, Elf the Musical has gotten Buddy DELIGHTFULLY, ENTIRELY RIGHT. It’s a tonic of a performance – the kind that makes you smile later, just thinking about it.”

TIME OUT

★★★★ “Elf the Musical is a Christmas Gift. My grinchiness vanished; to be replaced with a big wide grin…THIS SHOW IS REALLY ELFIN’ GOOD.”

THE NEW YORKER

“This revival EXUDES FRESHNESS–from Grey Henson’s spirited performance as a wide-eyed Buddy to Liam Steel’s playful choreography. The book and the score HAVE THE CRACKLE AND GLOW OF A FIRE IN THE HEARTH. Altogether, it’s enough to MAKE YOU BELIEVE IN THE MAGIC OF CHRISTMAS.”

DAILY BEAST

“With ROUSING SEAONSAL NUBMERS and NIFTY WIFT, Elf the Musical is a gift for kids and adults, and a very ‘Sparklejollytwinklejingley’ night out!”

DEADLINE

“Fans of the film, this cheery Elf has your tinseled name on it! A TERRIFIC SEAN ASTIN is having what seems to be the time of his life, as Santa himself…GREY HENSON fits into Buddy’s green winklepickers AS CINDERELLA DID A GLASS SLIPPER.”

BBC RADIO

“A CROWD-PLEASING, FEEL-GOOD DELIGHT, with SUPER SHOWMANSHIP and great dance choreography. The PERFECT STOCKINGSTUFFER, for children and adults alike this holiday season.”

THE SUN

“A RARE THING: A musical comedy that succeeds in its own GIDDY INGENUITY. AS SMART, EBULLIENT PRODUCTION that truly provides fun for the whole family.”

THEATERMANIA

“It made this jaded critic believe in Santa Claus again for one GLIMMERING, EPHEMERAL MOMENT OF THEATER MAGIC.”
