'The Elves and the Shoemaker' Featured in UC Clermont's Calico Children's Theatre

UC Clermont’s Calico Children’s Theatre features The Elves and the Shoemaker presented by ArtReach: A Division of the Children's Theatre of Cincinnati. When a kindly shoemaker gives his only remaining pair of shoes to a cold and hungry beggar woman, he finds his good deed rewarded in very unexpected ways. The shoemaker is shocked by the appearance of magic elves who turn his simple shoe shop into a great success, thrilling customers with their special creations. Soon the Queen hears of this unique shoe shop, but can the Shoemaker impress her without the elves? Based on the tale by the Brothers Grimm, this beloved, warm-hearted story reminds us that where we find goodness, generosity and hope, anything is possible.
