BSL Enterprises, LLC and MSG Entertainment announced today casting for the upcoming holiday production of ELF The Musical, which will play the Theater at Madison Square Garden as part of the 2015 national tour for a limited three week engagement from December 9 through December 27, 2015. Tickets are on sale now at theateratmsg.com/elf.

The cast will feature Eric Petersen (Buddy), JB Adams (Santa), Jen Bechter (Deb), Joshua Colley (Michael), Tom Galantich (Walter), Veronica Kuehn (Jovie), Christiane Noll (Emily), Danny Rutigliano (Mr. Greenway), and Arthur Ross (Store Manager).

ELF The Musical is the hilarious tale of Buddy, a young orphan child who mistakenly crawls into Santa's bag of gifts and is transported back to the North Pole. Unaware that he is actually human, Buddy's enormous size and poor toy-making abilities cause him to face the truth. With Santa's permission, Buddy embarks on a journey to New York City to find his birth father, discover his true identity, and help New York remember the true meaning of Christmas. This modern day Christmas classic is sure to make everyone embrace their inner ELF.

Based on the beloved 2003 New Line Cinema hit, ELF features songs by Tony Award nominees Matthew Sklar and Chad Beguelin (The Wedding Singer), with a book by Tony Award winners Thomas Meehan (Annie, The Producers, Hairspray) and Bob Martin (The Drowsy Chaperone). The production will feature direction by Sam Scalamoni and choreography by Connor Gallagher. Casting by Stewart/Whitley.

The New York Times says that ELF is "A SPLASHY, PEPPY, SUGAR-SPRINKLED HOLIDAY ENTERTAINMENT!" USA Today calls ELF "ENDEARINGLY GOOFY!" Variety proclaims, "ELF is happy enough for families, savvy enough for city kids and plenty smart for adults!"
