Santa missed a house last Christmas, and on Christmas Eve a spirited young girl, a determined mouse and an elf set off on a lively journey to the North Pole to solve the mystery and make sure Santa arrives on time. The theater bills it as a fast-paced, family-friendly comedy full of imagination and physical humor, directed by Joshua Brown, and all ages are welcome. Ten performances run from December 4 to 20: 7 PM shows on Thursday and Friday evenings and 2 PM matinees on Saturdays and Sundays, which suit younger children. Tickets are sold online through the theater's Ticket Tailor page. ## Similar picks in Sacramento - [Placer Theatre Ballet: The Nutcracker (Auburn)](https://grassyknees.com/sacramento/activities/placer-theatre-ballet-the-nutcracker-auburn--listing-5e53d5fde6eaf623a1a9b3c6) — Fri, Dec 4 (+4 more dates) · Placer High School Theater, Auburn · Paid · checked Oct 24.
