When a little boy’s gender atypical gift request to the North Pole is denied, a series of heart-felt letters from the child nudge Santa Claus out of the closet, and into the culture wars and the scandal that has come to be known as ‘Santa-Gate’. The Santa Closet is a funny, sensitive and imaginative tale that pulls at the holiday heartstrings while asking the question  "How do we speak honestly and openly to children, and each other, about LGBTQ+ lives and issues''?
