The Arts Club Theatre Company presents Miracle on 34th Street from November 21 to December 29 at the Granville Island Stage
A CHRISTMAS CLASSIC is back at the Arts Club Theatre Company this season, with Miracle on 34th Street running until December 29.
The beloved tale is directed by Omari Newton, with seasoned film, TV, and theatre actor Kevin McNulty in the role of Kris Kringle.
The story revolves around Kringle, who starts working as Santa Claus at Macy’s department store. While he insists he’s truly Santa, skeptical adults and one particularly unimaginative little girl doubt him. Things get heated when store executives take Kringle to court, where he has to prove he’s the real thing. As the jolly fellow takes on the challenge of proving his identity in a courtroom showdown, audiences are left to question—can there really be a Santa Claus?
Miracle on 34th Street was originally released as a film in 1947 and quickly became a seasonal staple. Its lasting appeal can be traced to its timeless themes of human kindness, believing in something, and the magic of the holiday season.
The Arts Club’s rendition is adapted by Caleb Marshall and Erin Keating from the story by Valentine Davies. It features costume design by Alaia Hamer, set design by Amir Ofek, lighting design by Jonathan Kim, and sound design by Owen Belton.
