Britain's What's On Event Guide
Wise Owl Theatre Co: The Worst Elf Ever! Fri 18th - Thurs 24th Decembe
On Christmas Eve at the North Pole, everything must be perfect… except for Oops, the clumsiest elf in Santa’s workshop. No matter how hard he tries, Oops breaks toys, tangles ribbons, and ruins routines. But when a disastrous mistake accidentally unleashes a fear-loving Christmas villain who believes mistakes deserve punishment, Christmas itself is suddenly at risk.
Determined to fix what he’s broken, Oops sets off on a journey across the North Pole, meeting unexpected helpers, including a wise Penguin and discovering that mistakes can teach us, kindness is stronger than fear, and joy doesn’t come from perfection.
In the end, Oops saves Christmas not by finally getting everything right, but by being brave enough to be himself.
A visually stunning, high-quality magical festive adventure featuring incredible puppetry to bring Santa’s world to life, written, directed and choreographed by Olivier Award-winner Nick Winston. Packed with love, laughter and a sprinkle of Christmas magic, it promises to be the perfect treat for the whole family.
Duration:
Estimated 60 Minutes
Important Information:
Age Guidance: Recommended for ages 3 and up.
Every child is different, and parents know best what their little ones will enjoy.
The Worst Elf Ever! will feature gentle flashing lights, occasional loud noises, non-hazardous haze and smoke effects as part of the magic, so please use your discretion when deciding if your child is ready for this festival adventure.
Please note, that the Friday 18th (4.30pm) performance is “relaxed” meaning more ambient lighting, quieter sounds and less special effects. It is also intended to provide BSL for this particular performance.
