Holy tap-dancing elves!

In 2015 we made a bunch of custom elf boots plus some elf SPATS for Ohio production and costume designer Inda Blatch-Geib. She designed the new production, Kris Kringle the Musical, which premiered Friday, December 4th 2015 in Olmsted Falls.

Thank you Inda for giving McGrews a nice shout out in The Akron Beacon Journal
