"Santa Claus' Daughter: A Musical Christmas Burlesque in Two Acts" by Everett Elliott and F. W. Hardcastle is a lighthearted theatrical play likely written in the late 19th century. This burlesque centers around the whimsical premise of Santa Claus' daughter longing for a companion in the North Pole, where romantic entanglements take on playful absurdities. The work combines musical elements with comedy, embracing the festive spirit of Christmas while portraying the humorous challenges of finding love. The story unfolds in two acts, beginning with Santa Claus preparing for his annual distribution of gifts. His daughter, Kitty Claus, expresses her desire for a man, prompting Santa's comical promise to bring her one from the land of mortals. Santa mistakenly brings home an Irishman named O'Rourke, who is oblivious to the frosty conditions of the North Pole. Amid a series of humorous misadventures involving misunderstandings and romantic aspirations, Kitty becomes infatuated with O'Rourke. As the plot progresses, family dynamics and the playful antics of the royal household lead to a lighthearted resolution, where the characters navigate the complexities of love and duty in a manner that is as entertaining as it is whimsical.
