UC Clermont College’s Calico Children’s Theatre will feature “The Shoemaker and the Christmas Elves”, performed by Virginia Rep on Tour, 6:30 p.m., Thursday, Dec. 13.

The show takes a yuletide spin on a classic Brothers’ Grimm fairy tale. Children will delight in the magical story of a poor shoemaker and the magical elves who show him the true meaning of Christmas. While Santa sends toy-making elves to the shoemaker shop, and the shoemaker finds dolls in his shop, all is right in this heartwarming holiday musical. The show is recommended for grades K-6.

All performances are held in the Krueger Auditorium on the UC Clermont College campus at 4200 Clermont College Dr., Batavia, Ohio, and are approximately one hour long.
