It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas on Opening Night of Elf

The cast of Elf kicked off the holiday season on November 14 when the new musical (based on the wildly popular 2003 film) opened at the Al Hirschfeld Theatre. Sebastian Arcelus, who stars as the Christmas-obssessed, inheritantly giddy title character, slapped on his green tights and elf uniform alongside co-stars Amy Spanger, Beth Leavel, Mark Jacoby, Matthew Gumley and George Wendt to ring some theatrical jingle bells for the musical's opening performance. After the show, the cast and crew headed over to the Grand Hyatt Hotel ballroom for a winter wonderland of an after-party.
