APPLICATION DEADLINE: FRIDAY, APRIL 10TH ABOUT THE SHOW Little Elves is a new horror-holiday musical loosely based on the folktale of St. Nicholas & the Evil Butcher. The story centers three young elves who after killing their captor, create an elaborate lie in order to survive. A reimagining of a folktale gone wrong, Little Elves brings the audience into a world of lies, deceit, and desperation. It explores a variety of intersectional themes among which are interrogations of “justified” vengeance, IBPOC relationships to religion, abolitionist interventions within cycles of violence, and the longstanding history of Anti-Asian policies and sentiments in Turtle Island (Canada).
