The Gift

The Gift

At Christmas-time the magic will find you anywhere – even in space!

Count down in the foyer, then blast off into the stars in this beautiful new production created especially by award-winning Early Years practitioners for our youngest audiences.  

There you’ll Join grumpy astronaut Captain Noli, as they embark on their biggest adventure yet – making a very special new friend!  

Highly visual story telling with immersive sounds and light bring you right into the heart of Noli’s story, where puppet robot Zee, brought to life by an acclaimed puppetry team, is sure to win your heart. This will be an unforgettable, and fully Covid-secure, Christmas theatre treat.  

Because Christmas is a time for giving, and friendship is the very best gift of all!

This production is socially distanced, and audience members are limited to keep our children and families safe.

Produced by Touched Theatre, commissioned by Z-arts, supported by Arts Council England
