Sheffield Theatres Sets Family Holiday Programming
This Christmas, children and their grown-ups are invited to take part in two very special festive missions as fantastic interactive productions 59 Minutes To Save Christmas (Friday 4 - Thursday 24 December) and Emergency Story Penguin (Saturday 12 December - Saturday 2 January) visit Sheffield Theatres.
In 59 Minutes To Save Christmas things are very, very wrong. Christmas trees are behaving strangely, there are rumours of grumpy fairies and the elves are throwing baubles at shoppers! Join General Algernon Crisis of the Royal Christmas Brigade as he tries to find out what is happening. Meeting curious festive characters along the way, audiences will help him as he battles to discover who is out to spoil everyone's holiday fun! 59 Minutes To Save Christmas is a fun, interactive adventure around the Crucible; ideal for intrepid explorers young and old!
The magical show Emergency Story Penguin will take audiences on a heart-warming adventure to Antarctica. A penguin is stranded and it's up to the Emergency Story Unit to save it. Jump aboard their state-of-the-art submarine and help the team come to the rescue! Emergency Story Penguin incorporates puppetry, video and music, for a charming show that will delight the family.
Don't miss these interactive family adventures for ages 5+ this Christmas.
