Sorry, Christmas is Cancelled... Katie Saves the Day!
When thieves break into Father Christmas' grotto and steal all the presents, Katie hitches a ride on a magical bird to the North Pole to help save the holiday. Audience members join Katie on an interactive adventure to solve clues in a mysterious advent calendar and navigate the snowy North Pole. Presented by Topsy Turvy Theatre, the production brings the story to life with handcrafted puppets, original music, stunning scenery, and Makaton.
