Musical, Golden Age
When a kindly old man claiming to be Kris Kringle is hired as the Macy’s department store Santa Claus, his warmth and genuine belief in Christmas magic captivate everyone — especially young Susan Walker, a skeptical little girl raised by her practical, no-nonsense divorced mother Doris. As Kris faces a sanity hearing to determine whether he really is Santa Claus, a young lawyer named Fred Gaily takes his case, hoping to prove that faith and imagination are as real as anything else — and to win Doris’s heart in the process.

Here's Love is a musical with a book, music, and lyrics by Meredith Willson. An adaptation of the film Miracle on 34th Street, the show is currently licensed under the film's name as Miracle on 34th Street: The Musical. The musical, much like the film that inspired it, tells the tale of a skeptical young girl who doubts the existence of Santa Claus. When the real Kris Kringle is hired inadvertently to represent jolly St. Nick in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, he must convince the child and her cynical divorced mother (the department store's special events director) that he is the genuine article.
