Celebrate the 80th anniversary of global phenomenon The Moomins this Christmas!
Step into the enchanting world of Moominvalley this Christmas at Jacksons Lane as we celebrate the 80th anniversary of global phenomenon The Moomins with Christmas Comes to Moominvalley, a new adaptation of Tove Jansson’s classic tale, The Fir Tree.
Opening at Jacksons Lane on 7 December 2024 until 5 January 2025, Christmas Comes to Moominvalley features a multi-disciplinary cast of physical performers including Xenia Garden (The Crowning of Witchy White, Tackroom Theatre), Myles Macdonald (circus and physical theatre performer), Aya Nakamura (puppeteer on Coldplay’s Music of the Spheres world tour), Carys Nicholls (acrobat and co-founder of Hands Down Circus), and Lawrence Swaddle (actor and circus performer).
“Christmas is coming and here you are asleep! This won’t do at all!”
The Moomins are woken up from their winter sleep to be told that 'Christmas' is coming. The only trouble is, the puzzled Moomins have no idea who, or what 'Christmas' is . . .
Audiences of all ages will be captivated by the lovable Moomintroll, his parents, Moominmamma and Moominpappa and all their friends. The Moomin family demonstrate their special values of tolerance, kindness and integrity, as they prepare for their first Christmas - helping us understand what the festive season is really all about.
