The Flying Elephant Company presents the world premiere of Book Nooks – A Christmas Musical, with an orchestral score reminiscent of Sondheim, and a Dickensian tale full of magic and joy.
Every year on Christmas eve, 11-year-old Jack Barker and his grandpa delivered candy canes and other sweets to the houses in their town, but this Christmas will be the first since Grandpa passed away. As the Barker’s move into the newly inherited family home – the traditional gathering place for Christmas – Jack refuses to join the celebrations, believing that doing so would be leaving his grandpa behind.
However, one night Jack finds himself in a magical village of Grunkels – the miniature makers of Christmas sweets – who have made their homes within the forgotten encyclopedias and history books that sit on the top shelves of his grandpa’s bookcase. The Grunkels had found refuge with Jack’s grandpa after escaping a great reckoning in their homeland. But now Grandpa is no longer around, they have no way of getting their Christmas sweets out to all the children of the town. That is until Jack comes along.
Although reluctant at first, Jack grows close to the amiable creatures and carries on the tradition of delivering the Grunkel's sweets, house by house. All the while Jack learns how to cope with his loss, he rediscovers his joy for Christmas, and reconnects with his family.
