Summary of “An Honorary Elf”

The play begins with a young girl named Jeanna on Christmas Eve.  Her mother is a person who cares only for her own affairs and has no Christmas spirit.  While Jeanna is decorating the Christmas tree all by herself, two elves enter the scene and bring Jeanna to the North Pole to become an honourary elf.  Once at the North Pole, it becomes clear to Jeanna that something is not right.  Santa is nowhere to be seen, Frosty the Snowman is melting, and it seems the elves are behind it all.  Jeanna begins to realize it is all up to her to save Christmas, with some help from friends.
