SANTA CLAUS: THE MUSICAL Comes to The Children's Theatre of Cincinnati

The Children's Theatre of Cincinnati's 24-25 MainStage Season at the Taft Theatre will continue with Santa Claus: The Musical. Performances will run December 7-16, 2024. This is the company's last season at the Taft Theatre before opening the reimagined Emery Theater in October 2025.

Book by Noah Putterman. Music & Lyrics by David Christensen & Luke Holloway. The show features Local 12’s Bob Herzog as Nick, Santa’s chosen replacement.

It’s Christmas Eve! After 1,000 years of faithful service, Santa and Mrs. Claus announce their decision to hang up the big red suit and train a replacement. Enter Nick (Bob Herzog): a website designer and single dad to tech-savvy daughter, Bea. With pressures mounting–and a jealous, naughty elf thwarting their every move–will everyone in Santa’s Workshop come together in time for Nick to take the reins?
