This event has now finished.

Inspired by Clement Clarke Moore's much-loved poem, we bring Christmas Eve to life in a new production featuring original music, skilful puppetry and a generous sprinkling of festive magic.   

Amber is six and loves reindeers! It’s Christmas Eve but Grandad is being extremely grumpy, and Amber’s favourite snow-globe gets broken. Then her world is turned topsy turvy by a surprise visitor and Amber begins an adventure she will never forget.

Join Amber on a festive journey like no other – after all, on the night before Christmas, surprises can happen!

Written by Hattie Naylor
Directed by Roman Stefanski
Designed by Kate Bunce
Music by Julian Butler

A Polka Theatre and Royal & Derngate, Northampton co-production.
