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!

Performance Schedule:

Friday 6th December: 10.45am & 1.30pm
Saturday 7th December: 2pm & 4.30pm (Quiet Performance) & 8pm (Cancelled)
Tuesday 10th - Thursday 12th December: 10.45am & 1.30pm
Saturday 14th December: 11am (Quiet Performance) & 2pm & 4.30pm
Sunday 15th December: 2pm & 4.30pm
Monday 16th - Thursday 19th December: 10.45am & 1.30pm
Saturday 21st December: 11am & 2pm & 4.30pm (Quiet Performance)
Sunday 22nd December: 11am & 2pm

Suitable for all ages but especially aimed at 4 - 10 years with a running time of approx 1 hour.

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.
