DIRECTOR’S NOTE

When Cypress Meadows Community Church first approached our group, Bay Area Performing Arts and Casting (BAPAC) about collaborating on this project I was thrilled. I have had the privilege of witnessing first hand their dedication to the local and global communities they are a part of. “Spreading Christmas cheer for all to hear” lined up perfectly with their reputation of bringing hope and love to the world and our de-sire to provide opportunities for the next generation of professional art-ists. Elf, Jr, The Musical, is a delightful tribute to the movie Elf a new Christmas Classic. Feel free to clap along. We hope you enjoy the show and of course, Merry Christmas!
