CHRISTMAS SURPRISE by Marcos Cruz - Trick

Give your Christmas show a playful surprise as Santa Claus, the Grinch, and Rudolph appear in a story built for young audiences. In Christmas Surprise, Marcos Cruz takes you from a hand that reaches out of the fireplace to an unexpected reveal that sets up a funny audience moment.

Tell the children there’s a surprise in the fireplace, bring Santa into the story, and let the Grinch interrupt his magic. When the audience insists you turn Santa around, the reveal changes the scene again: it’s Rudolph the reindeer. You can then build a Christmas story around Rudolph and magically play with his red nose.

• Christmas story routine: Santa, the Grinch, and Rudolph give you several characters to bring into your holiday performance.
• Audience participation: The children help Santa return, while an audience member’s challenge leads to a funny moment.
• For child audiences: The routine is described as ideal for performing for children.
• Virtual performance: The presentation is suited to Christmas virtual platforms.
• Included: Each set contains the fireplace and its applications, the Santa Claus and Grinch gimmick, and instructional video in Spanish and English.

Use Christmas Surprise to give a holiday show a lively story arc, with a final Rudolph reveal that leads naturally into more playful Christmas magic.
