“Elf: The Musical”

In a heartwarming partnership with Pocket Community Theatre, The Springs Magazine is thrilled to present an exclusive cover photo for its December issue, featuring none other than the iconic duo, Santa and Elf, from the upcoming production of “Elf: The Musical.”

Attendees of a recent fundraiser for Pocket Community Theatre were treated to a delightful sneak preview of “Elf.” The enchanting performance left us in high spirits, and we couldn’t resist the idea of capturing the magic for our readers.

“Ho! Ho! Ho!” we chortled as we envisioned the possibility of Santa and Elf gracing the cover of our December issue. Much to our joy, the powers that be agreed, and Santa and Elf’s agents were on board to approve this exclusive cover photo. The cover, a visual treat, not only spreads festive cheer but also serves as an open invitation for our readers to embark on a magical sleigh ride to Ramble Street to experience the enchantment of “Elf: The Musical” for yourselves.

Pocket Community Theatre has been a cornerstone of the arts scene in Hot Springs for over 30 years. Committed to delivering exceptional theatrical experiences, the theatre continues to be a hub for creativity, talent, and community engagement. 

As we end our 31st year, we’d like to say a heartfelt “Thank You” to all the fine folks on our team who contributed in so many ways to help us capture the essence of our vibrant community in all these years!
