About this Event

Presenting Our Heartwarming Show This Christmas: The Velveteen Rabbit

<h4>Inspired by Margery Williams’ tale. Retold by Ben Crompton.</h4>

Toys come to life through the magic of storytelling, music, and dance, creating a captivating show for the whole family.

In this entertaining dance theatre performance, a toy rabbit and a boy embark on an adventure, discovering the essence of growing up and the meaning of love.

"When a child loves you for a long, long time, not just to play with, but REALLY loves you, then you become Real."

Youngsters are invited to watch and wonder from a comfy cushion of their own up close, as the spectacle unfolds. At the end of the performance, children are offered an opportunity to interact with the costumed performers.

Running time 45 minutes. Relaxed performances. Suitable for the whole family and all ages.
