  <abstract>"Mr. and Mrs. Santa Claus: Musical Christmas play in four scenes" by Maud Brunton is a children's musical play written in the early 20th century. This work presents a whimsical story centered around the beloved characters of Santa Claus and Mrs. Claus, exploring themes of love and responsibility during the Christmas season. The play likely targets a young audience, encouraging participation through singing and dancing while emphasizing the joyous celebration of Christmas.  The narrative follows Santa Claus, who becomes so enamored with the Fairy Queen that he neglects his Christmas duties, leading to chaos in the preparations for the holiday. The Fairy Queen, captivated by the attention of a transformed fairy prince, also forgets her responsibilities. Prompted by the need to restore order for Christmas, various fairy characters orchestrate efforts to bring Santa and the Queen back to their senses. Amid mistaken identities, a false sense of tragedy, and comedic misunderstandings, Santa ultimately marries the Fairy Queen, who learns to embrace her responsibilities. The play concludes with a grand Christmas celebration, featuring the distribution of gifts and joyous festivities, encapsulating the spirit of Christmas cheer and fulfillment.
