Santa’s Christmas Cracker
- the show where every child gets a present from Santa!

Following last year’s sell-out performances of Santa’s Christmas Wish,

Honalee Media are delighted to present their next hit Santa Show this Christmas…

“It really is the most wonderful time of the year, so it’s no surprise that

everyone at the North Pole is super-excited as Christmas draws near!

Father Christmas is busy making toys, Dotty the Elf is decorating the Christmas tree and Dasher the Reindeer is getting presents onto his sleigh -

but then they meet a lost penguin who has never even heard of Christmas…

Impossible! But how to teach him all about Christmas?

Dare they open the door marked For Christmas Emergencies Only?

And can you help unleash the magic of Christmas

by pulling one of Santa’s Christmas Crackers?”

​

This Christmas we’ll be transforming The North Wall into an atmospheric winter wonderland full of magic, mystery, and misadventure.

Journey with us deep into the heart of the woodland, where the Witches of Winter rise from the frozen earth to prepare for the awakening of their leader, a mysterious witch known as the Priestess of Winter. Only the birds circling in the cold air high above can save them from the most powerful witch in the land.
