Tis the Season to eat, drink, and be merry!So, what are few of the fun things to do around town this season?

Elf The MusicalThe tale of Buddy, a young orphan child who crawled into Santa’s bag one Christmas and was transported to the North Pole. Santa raises Buddy as one of his elves, but try as he might Buddy does not make a good fit with his enormous size and poor toy-making abilities. With Santa’s permission, Buddy embarks on a journey to New York City to find his true family. Along the path to discover his true identity, Buddy helps New York remember the true meaning of Christmas. “Elf The Musical” is presented December 26 - 27 at the Peabody Opera House located at 1400 Market Street. For complete information please visit the Peabody on the web at www.peabodyoperahouse.com

The Nutcracker presented by Saint Louis BalletHoriuchi’s version of The Nutcracker, at the Touhill, doesn’t hold back on the spectacular effects with smoke and pyrotechnics as well as some new effects. The Nutcracker is a holiday family favorite featuring the profes-sional company along with students from the St. Louis Ballet School – and special surprise guests in the comic role of Mother Ginger. You can see this holiday tradition December 17 through the 23rd at the Touhill Performing Arts Center located on the UMSL Campus at One University Boulevard. For complete information please visit the web at ww.touhill.org

WickedWhile not your traditional Christmas fable, Wicked does give those of us who like being naughty a break from the all those sugar plums. This is OZ before Judy Garland. Long before Judy there were two other girls who met in the Land of Oz. One with emerald green skin - is smart, fiery and misunderstood. The other is beautiful, ambitious and very popular. How these two become the Wicked Witch of the West and Glinda the Good is the tale of Wicked. Presented at the Fox Theatre located at 527 N. Grand Blvd. in Grand Center December 9, 2015 thru January 3, 2016. For information please visit the Fox at the web at www.fabulousfox.com

Peter and the Starcatcher An apprentice starcatcher and a young orphan boy find themselves on a life-changing adventure when they are charged with protecting magical starstuff from a fearsome pirate. Pursued by a giant crocodile, mysteri-ous mermaids and angry islanders, their fantastical journey is filled with spectacle and whimsy. This swashbuckling prequel to Peter Pan is rich in off-the-wall humor and touching sincerity as it takes a voyage to an island where dreams are born and time is never planned. The Repertory Theatre of St. Louis located at 130 Edgar Road on the Webster University Campus will be presenting Peter and the Starcatcher from now until December 27. For ticket and other information please visit the Rep on the web at www.repstl.org

Celebrating the Holidays at Powell HallThe St. Louis Symphony is presenting a series of concerts and events to celebrate the season. December 11, 12 and 13 you can listen to the Sym-phony play the music of John Williams, including selections from Home Alone, Harry Potter and Star Wars. Not exactly Christmas carols but great fun. Then on December 17 the Symphony presents “A Gospel Christmas with Thomas Young”. Grammy Award-winning tenor Thomas Young joins the STL Symphony and the IN UNISON Chorus for a night of Gospel music to celebrate the season. On December 18 through December 20 you can join the Symphony in its “Macy’s Holiday Celebration”. Listen to the Sym-phony play timeless classics like “Sleigh Ride,” “Winter Wonderland,” and end with a holiday sing-along and a visit from jolly Ol’ St. Nick himself. Powell Hall is located at 718 N. Grand Blvd. in Grand Center. Visit the web at www.stlsymphony.org for more information on the Christmas concerts.

Jazz St. Louis Jazz at the BristoIf you want a little more cool in your Holiday then check out the schedule for Christmas shows and celebrate with Jazz at the Bristo.
