| Summary | "Up the Chimney" by Shepherd Knapp is a delightful children's play intended for performance as well as reading. Written in the early 20th century, this engaging narrative revolves around the themes of Christmas and childhood imagination. It is designed to capture the festive spirit of the holiday season, showcasing the joy of children as they engage with the magic of Santa Claus and Christmas traditions. The play begins on Christmas Eve, featuring two siblings, Jack and Polly, who eagerly prepare for Santa Claus by writing letters to him. Their adventure takes a turn when they meet Nurse Mary, who recounts tales from their father's childhood. Suddenly, a little green man appears and delivers a letter from Santa, revealing that he is ill and unable to deliver gifts. Determined to help, Jack and Polly use magical fairy items to journey to the North Pole, where they deliver medicine to Santa Claus, restoring his health. The story culminates in a joyous Christmas morning, filled with love, generosity, and the magic that the holiday brings. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
