Elf The Musical is returning to Broadway for a limited holiday engagement this November, with Tony nominee Grey Henson (Mean Girls) in the lead role.
Producers Temple Live Entertainment and Crossroads Live North America announced the engagement today. The musical, which originally opened on Broadway in 2010, will begin previews at The Marquis Theatre on Saturday, November 9, with an official opening night on Sunday, November 17.
The engagement will run through Saturday, January 4, 2025. Philip Wm. McKinley (Boy From Oz, Spiderman: Turn Off The Dark) will direct. “I cannot wait to play Buddy the Elf eight times a week, in this hilarious and joyful musical, during the most magical time of the year on Broadway,” said Henson in a statement. “Elf has always been required yearly viewing for me, and I am so honored and excited to be fulfilling a lifelong dream of wearing tights on Broadway.” In addition to his Tony-nominated turn in Mean Girls, Henson most recently starred on Broadway in the 2023 musical Shucked.
Further casting will be announced at a later date. The Broadway return follows two record-breaking holiday seasons in London’s West End in 2022 and 2023.
