When Christmas is threatened by a severe outbreak of the North Pole Pox and Santa himself is quarantined, it’s Mrs. Claus to the rescue! She has less than 24 hours to figure out how to pull off the best Christmas ever. Good thing she has a team of elves and Christmas creatures to work out the details. With traditional carols and a world-premiere script (commissioned by The Children's Theatre of Cincinnati), this holiday musical is about leadership, goodwill and teamwork. Recommended for grades K-5.
