(CAPE MAY, NJ) -- Cape May Stage presents the World Premiere of Let's Catch Santa from November 19 through December 28, 2025. This is a new holiday play by Dan McCormick that combines magic, humor, hope and the Christmas spirit. The production is directed by Roy Steinberg.
This heartwarming dramatic comedy takes place on Christmas Eve. When a young woman new to the neighborhood attempts to return a misdelivered package, she meets her elderly neighbor for the first time. What begins as a simple favor turns into an unexpected adventure as she discovers his one holiday wish: to catch Santa Claus. This heart-warming play brings two lonely souls together, to find family in each other, truth within themselves and the fun, child-like belief in the timeless magic of Santa, Christmas and the holiday season!
The play stars Beau Allen and Katie May Porter.
Performances take place Wednesdays through Saturdays at 7:00pm; Sundays at 3:00pm. Tickets are available for purchase online. The theater is located at 405 Lafayette Street in Cape May, New Jersey.
Running time is 70 minutes with no intermission. Full of laughter, love, and a little holiday mischief, this show is best enjoyed by adults and those ages 13 and up.
