The Royal Christmas Pudding: Schools Information

A feast of stories and songs for key stages 1 and 2

This Christmas, join us for a feast of story and song with ‘The Royal Christmas Pudding’, our festive show for 2022.

For as long as anyone can remember, the Royal Cook has made the Royal Christmas pudding, but now he’s retired, his son has taken over the job. However, there’s just one problem… his son is hopeless at cooking! It’s up to the Royal Cook’s daughter to save the day. Together, brother and sister set out to make the perfect pudding, save Christmas and make their wishes come true.

Featuring traditional stories woven together with original songs and music, this festive treat promises to give even the hungriest of appetites a happy ever after.
