Elf: A Christmas Spectacular is coming to Birmingham this Christmas – here’s how to get yourself a ticket.
Arguing which Christmas film is considered the greatest of all time has become somewhat of an annual debate; however, that dispute appears to be over with Elf, starring Will Ferrell, being voted the best family Christmas film.
It’s probably no coincidence why ITV decided to show the film last Sunday after Ranker recently put the 2003 comedy at the top of the list. Even better news for Elf fans is that ELF, the hit West End and Broadway musical based on the Hollywood blockbuster movie, is to be supersized into a Christmas spectacular this December… AND IT’S COMING TO BIRMINGHAM.
Starring pop legend David Essex as Buddy the Elf’s father; Love Actually star and singer Martine McCutcheon as Buddy’s girlfriend, Jovie; plus, comedy actor Tam Ryan as Buddy, this will be a festive treat like no other.
Featuring a book written by Bob Martin and Thomas Meehan (Annie, The Producers and Hairspray), this new Christmas spectacular will also include an original score of great new songs. Added to this, there are some special effects lined up that will take your family’s breath away, including a giant sleigh that flies across the arena, an indoor snow blizzard and lots of skating. This will all be teamed with giant screens and a humungous stage so you can catch all of the action.
Make sure you’re not on the naughty list, and join Buddy and friends at Resorts World Arena this Christmas! The show is running from 20th – 24th December and you can get your tickets from: https://www.resortsworldarena.co.uk/whats-on/elf-a-christmas-spectacular/
