Santa Claus Helps Find Love Macy and Gimble actually friends! Who would have believed it? But it all came true at the MHS musical Here’s Love.” The story revolved around a man who claimed to be the real Santa Claus and all the people who helped him to prove it. The musical contained a little bit of something for everyone—a love scene between Doris and Fred, a toy ballet, and an inspiring message on the true spirit of Christmas. All of this is the result of the relationship between Santa and a little girl called Susie. When faced with her pessimism, he goes out to prove the true spirit of Christmas. His attitude affects quite a few peoples’ lives, including Susie’s mother and Fred Gaily. The musical fit in perfectly with the Christmas season. As a result of a lot of hard work and long practices, a great job was done by all! 12
