CHRISTMAS IS RUINED!
Written and Directed By Kathryn Gardner
"... told with a lot of playful charm" - The Spectator
It’s Christmas Eve in London and all the children are tucked up in their beds.
Apart from Bo.
Bo just found out there won’t be many presents this year, so obviously, Christmas is RUINED!!
Someone else is still awake. An inquisitive Fox is rooting through the bins, desperate to know what all the lights, singing and parties are about.
And Fox isn't the only one. All the other critters on the estate want to know about the meaning of Christmas too.
But back to Bo. Is Christmas ruined?
Climb aboard as we whizz off on a jingle-belled, fun-filled adventure with a host of hilarious, larger-than-life characters, eye popping acrobatics, and a generous dose of theatre magic.
Sing and dance along with Fox and friends, as Bo teaches the local animals how to be festive. And just what Christmas is really about.
