Dates for the show are Nov. 9 and 16 at 7 p.m., and Nov. 10, 11, 17 and 18 at 2 p.m. All performances will be in the Ames City Auditorium on 515 Clark Ave. Elf The Musical JR. is written by Thomas Meehan and Bob Martin, with music by Matthew Sklar and lyrics by Chad Beguelin. The story begins when Buddy, a young orphan, mistakenly crawls into Santa’s bag of gifts. He is transported to the North Pole and raised as an elf, unaware that he is actually human. When he discovers the truth, Buddy embarks on a journey to New York City to find his birth father and true identity. The cast of talented, young actors from Ames and the surrounding areas will take the audience on a magical journey of self-discovery full of Christmas cheer. Advance tickets are available through Nov. 8 for $8 each. Tickets can be purchased from any cast or crew member or at the Ames Community Cen-
ter (gym). Tickets are also available through the STC website. After Nov. 8 tickets will be $12 for adults and $8 for children, students, and seniors. Tickets are good for any show and all seats are general admission. We cannot accept credit cards at the door, and there is no ATM on site. If you have questions, please visit our website: www.storytheatercompany.org. STC’s production of Elf The Musical JR. is sponsored by Clarity Asset Management and Lowe’s of Ames. The program is funded in part by local option tax funds provided by the City of Ames through the Commission on the Arts (COTA). The show is directed by Erica Walling, with musical direction by Cynthia Marten.
