Current show: Mrs Claus' List
Come on a special adventure to help the reindeer fly at Christmas!
When a young child feels they should be on the ‘Naughty List’, Mrs Claus and Elvie the Elf step in with a lesson in self-worth – and Christmas magic!
This Christmas, Blue Elephant Theatre brings you a brand-new show packed with laughter, joy, and loads of chances to join in. It’s a feel-good story full of festive spirit and a reminder that a little belief goes a long way!

We have relaxed performance elements in every show which include:
- Some level of continuous light, so the theatre will never be completely dark.
- A breakout space available upstairs in our bar area. (You are welcome to leave the performance at any point and then re-enter whenever suits you.)
- Noise cancelling headphones available for children to borrow.
- Expectations that audiences will be involved and will not sit silently like statues! However, no children will be forced to take part or made to feel uncomfortable if they choose not to.

Additionally, we are offering Quiet Performances which will be particularly welcoming towards children who like a quieter environment. We will keep the volume of the sound effects lower and reduce the intensity of some lighting effects and moments of audience interaction.
Due to unforeseen events, we are having to cancel our Gala Performance of Mrs Claus' List on December 7th. Ticket holders have been contacted. If you would still like to donate to the Blue Elephant, you can do so here and/or you can come to another performance of the show.
Tickets can also be booked by phoning the Ticketsource Telephone Box Office on 0333 666 3366, available from Monday to Friday, 9.00AM to 7.00PM and Saturday, 9.00AM to 5.00PM (excluding bank holidays). Bookings made through this service are subject to a small booking fee.
