Hudson Theater Ensemble presents Songs, Laughs, and Positive Messages
By Sally Deering
 Once upon a time in Hoboken a little theater company decided to put on plays for adults and kids, and now, celebrating its 14th season, Hudson Theatre Ensemble presents the newest musical in its “Silly on Sixth†children’s series, THE ELVES AND THE SHOEMAKER
Richard Dwyer and Deborah Michels rehearse their roles as elves in THE ELVES AND THE SHOEMAKER
The show, adapted from the old fairy tale, is by Karen Boettcher-Tate and takes a comedic twist on a shoemaker and his wife who have a very demanding landlady. When their luck seems to run out, a complete stranger invites three kooky elves into their lives who start making magical shoes that save the poor shoemaker and his wife from eviction and the unemployment line.
