About the Show:
Jingle the Elf’s Fairytale Fiasco follows the journey of Jingle, Santa’s cheeky elf who’s always getting into trouble, as she steals Santa’s sleigh on Christmas Eve in the hopes of getting herself onto the nice list. She goes in search of well-known fairy tale characters who are on the naughty list every year in the hopes of being able to get them onto the nice list, in turn getting her on it too. Filled with lovable characters, catchy songs and lots of laughs this Christmas show is a perfect alternative to the pantomime suitable for the whole family.
The show is designed for audiences aged 2 – 102. The relaxed, interactive performance style means you don’t have to worry about your little ones jumping around or getting out of their seats! With the show only being 40 minutes long and the children encouraged to sit on the floor on mats & cushions it is perfect for the littler wriggly ones.
The children were encouraged to join in with the Christmas “magic”, singing and dancing and the youngest mini-mumbler (age 5) was engrossed from start to finish. I sat back in my chair enjoying my complimentary cup of tea and mince pie watching – the joy on her face when Elsa entered the stage making it snow was priceless!
The older Mini-Mumbler (age 8) still enjoyed the performance but is fast growing out of fairytales (SOB!).
With limited tickets available for each performance (so booking early is a MUST), the kids had room to move about the floor as the actors did about the stage meaning they had a clear view of every second.
Performances will take place between 14th December 2019 and 3rd January 2020 and run at 11 am, 2 pm and 6 pm. For the price of £8 per ticket, it is money well spent!
For some sessions, there will be craft activities available afterwards for an additional cost. You can UPGRADE your ticket to include TWO Christmas Crafts for £12.50. You get your children’s show ticket then they can create traditional tree decoration AND decorate a cookie plate for Santa.
If you are looking for a unique pantomime featuring old friends this is perfect for your little ones.
