Christmas comes to life when our annual festive family show arrives on stage. Packed with laughter, music and festive magic, it’s the perfect way to celebrate together.

Three performers in colourful costumes stand on stage with their arms raised in celebration. On the left, one wears green tartan pyjamas with a fluffy grey hat with ears. In the middle, another, beaming, wears bright pink striped pyjamas with grey fur trim. On the right, a third wears a white fur cape, silver sash and spiky white headdress. Behind them, a wintry set of glowing white geometric trees, hanging snowflakes and stars is lit by beams of blue and gold light, with snow falling across the stage.

Our family productions are welcoming, accessible and suitable for children and young people of all ages.

When young people experience live theatre, it helps spark imagination, build confidence and support creativity, while contributing to wellbeing, critical thinking and lifelong learning skills.
