Andrew and Mark continue their look at the Santa family this month with the delightful musical "Mrs. Santa Claus." Debuting on CBS in 1996, Mrs. Santa Claus stars Angela Lansbury as a wayward but plucky Mrs. Claus, who sets out to show the North Pole that she's more than just the wife of Santa. Combine that with a memorable Jerry Herman score and choreography from Chicago's Rob Marshall, and you've got a unsung singing gem in this holiday musical. Listen in, how about?
