This Christmas, Olivier Award-winning theatre company Little Bulb (Wolf Witch Giant Fairy, CBeebie’s Christmas Pantos) invite you to experience an audacious reimagining of E. T. A Hoffman’s classic tale.
When two squabbling siblings receive a mysterious nutcracker from their flamboyant Aunty on Christmas Eve, it sets them off on a fantastical journey into ‘The Mousey Realm’. Can they put their differences aside and stop the evil, many-headed Mouse King before he ruins Christmas? Only time will tell…
This bold and brilliantly silly tale is brought to ingenious theatrical life with clever cardboard creations, comic characters and a chorus of cheeky musical mice. It’s crammed full of action, laugh-out-loud comedy, and a sleigh-load of festive bangers that’ll have you dancing in your seat – with just the right amount of cheese.
Arrive early for a very cheesy Christmas gig from our in-house Mouse Band!
Reimagined and created by Little Bulb
