Most of us are well-acquainted with the traditional tales of St. Nick, but The Empty Space has a fresh take on the jolly old elf with the upcoming The Life and Adventures of Santa Claus.
Director Jeremiah Heitman adapted the new audio play from the book by L. Frank Baum. Much like in his best-known work, The Wizard of Oz, Baum brings magic and adventure to the tale of a young Santa Claus. Iâm a huge fantasy fan, and I loved the way Baum intertwined the magical elements into his narrative to tell the story of such an iconic character, Heitman wrote in an email. The show doesnât focus on the Santa Claus we know, it tells the tale of his youth.
