Peekskill’s own Antonia Arts brings a heartwarming, family musical for the holidays to the Paramount—Don’t Call Me Santa! An original show, developed right here in Peekskill.
In Don’t Call Me Santa! a classic Christmas story gets turned on its head—legendary Holiday gift-givers from around the world team up to save Christmas … from Santa Claus! Santa’s not a bad guy — he just thinks there’s only one way to do Christmas: his way. Krampus leads the rebellion to teach Santa that everyone can celebrate the holidays in their own way — and there’s more than one kind of magic.
Meet the Christmas Crew:
St. Nicholas, the Catholic saint
Father Christmas, the English Spirit of the Yule
La Befana, the Italian Christmas Witch
Ded Moroz, the Russian Grandfather Frost, and his granddaughter the Snow Maiden
Joulupukki, the Scandinavian Yule Goat
Belsnickle, “Nicholas in Furs” from Pennsylvania Dutch country
Servent Ruprecht, St. Nick’s German assistant
And even Santa-San, the Japanese Fried Chicken Colonel himself
