It’s nearly Christmas Eve, and everything is going wrong in Santa’s workshop! Rudolph’s nose won’t glow, the Naughty and Nice list has gone missing, and the naughty elves are causing chaos. Santa’s constantly called away to fix problems, leaving Mrs. Claus feeling ignored, while the glamorous Christmas Fairy struggles to keep everything on track. With time running out, can Santa and his crew save Christmas before disaster strikes? Packed with laughs, songs, and festive fun, this panto is a holiday treat for all ages!
