Based on the holiday film, this hilarious fish-out-of-water comedy follows Buddy the Elf in his quest to find his true identity.
Sail off on a fantastic musical excursion when a band of comical pirates lands at North Beach looking for an expert digger to join their crew. Braid Beard and his mates enlist young Jeremy Jacob, as they try to find the perfect spot to bury their treasure. Jeremy finds that adventuring can be lots of fun, but also learns that love and home are treasures you can't find on any map! The whole family will love this delightful and swashbuckling musical adventure!

"Your ears will enjoy fair sailing if your family decides to drop anchor to see "How I Became a Pirate." This musical has an upbeat Disney movie quality to it in the tradition of "The Little Mermaid" and "The Lion King." It's fun for kids and packed with musical sophistication and clever lines to keep older children and adults entertained.”  JANE PALMER / OMAHA WORLD-HERALD
