Mackers the Elf by Daniel Deray

Directed by Daniel Deray

As Susan

A young elf named Mackers finds himself at a crossroads when he meets a group of witches who prophesize him to be the North Pole's new leader but in order to do so he must perform the unthinkable! With his conniving wife Susan in his ear, Mackers does the horrid holiday deed only to find the consequences are more treacherous than he could have ever imagined. This Christmas dark comedy, based on Shakespeare's Macbeth has everything you could want in a Christmas classic; murder, Christmas cookies, candy cane shivs, and of course Tim Burton.

Mackers the elf was a wild ride! Emergency Covers, broken heating, and constantly breaking the tip off the candy cane shiv...it was a wild ride, but one I wouldn't trade for anything in the whole world! we managed to pull this show together in what I think is a short amount of time, and it went off well! Susan helped me check off a bucket list acting item: murder someone on stage!
