Elf The Musical follows Buddy, a human who was raised at the North Pole believing he's an elf. But when he discovers his true identity, he travels to New York City in search of his real father and spreads Christmas cheer. Along the way, Buddy’s childlike spirit and enthusiasm help a cynical world rediscover the joy of the holiday season.

A heartwarming comedy show perfect for the whole family, Elf The Musical plays at the Aldwych Theatre until 3 January 2026.
