Jerome McDonough's first play for children has humor, suspense and an important Christmas lesson. A play easily performed for, or even by, children. It's Sad, So Sad When an Elf Goes Bad is the tale of Emmy, Santa's tiniest and most accident-prone elf. Between Emmy's natural clumsiness and mischievousness, Santa cannot find a spot for her in his organization except caring for Ralph, a reindeer forced unwillingly into retirement. The bitter pair wreak a Jekyll-and-Hyde revenge on Santa, but their plans backfire. The original production was cheered by children from three years of age through sixth grade in its two-day, seven-location tour. The teachers seemed to love it as much as the children did. This show is fun for all groups and a good workout in mime.
