Carta a Santa Claus (musical)verified
Rebecca has stopped believing in Christmas since losing her father, but a letter from her mother to Santa Claus sends Íbereth, one of his trusted elves, to bring back her sense of wonder. This musical for all audiences, with book, music and lyrics by Enrique Fernández-Villamil Menéndez, comes to the Teatro Pérez Galdós in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria for several performances.
Rebecca is a rebellious teenager who has stopped believing in Christmas since her father died. Worried, her mother writes to Santa Claus for help, and Santa Claus sends Íbereth, one of his trusted elves, on a mission to bring back her sense of wonder. Through songs that are funny, tender and full of feeling, the musical speaks of loss, hope and the value of friendship, and of how the most important gifts do not always come wrapped.
Enrique Fernández-Villamil Menéndez wrote the book, music and lyrics and is musical director; Ada Rapisarda Santana plays Rebecca, Pablo Ojeda plays Íbereth and Gustavo Mendoza is Santa Claus. The show is for all audiences, runs 75 minutes and is staged in the Sala Principal; children need their own paid seat regardless of age, and doors open 45 minutes before the start. This performance is on Sunday 20 December 2026 at 17:00.
