Founded in 1932, the Prague Philharmonic Children’s Choir gained notoriety in 1952, and is now one of the most significant Czech artistic collectives, having recorded over 50 albums of both Czech and international music. Their visit is part of an exclusive twelve-day US concert tour marking the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Czech state. The choir will perform a one-hour version of their full show, featuring works by leading Czech composers such as Smetana and Part.

Presented by City Springs Theatre Company and based on the beloved holiday film, this hilarious fish-out-of-water comedy follows Buddy the Elf in his quest to find his true identity. Buddy, a young orphan, mistakenly crawls into Santa’s bag of gifts and is transported to the North Pole. The would-be elf is raised, unaware that he is actually a human, until his enormous size and poor toy- making abilities cause him to face the truth. With Santa’s permission, Buddy embarks on a journey to New York City to find his birth father and discover his true identity. Faced with the harsh realities that his father is on the naughty list and his half-brother doesn’t even believe in Santa, Buddy is determined to win over his new family and help New York remember the true meaning of Christmas. This modern day holiday classic is sure to make everyone embrace their inner elf. After all, the best way to spread Christmas Cheer is singing loud for all to hear.
