Who said August was the relaxing, quiet month? You might be on a towel sipping a Pina colada, but over here we're just getting started.

Festive Family Fun in Walthamstow

It might be hot outside, but over in Walthamstow we've got our woolly hats on for the festive period.


For family fun over the Christmas holidays, we've secured a visit from the patchwork elephant himself - Elmer, in The Elmer Adventure. From the producers of The Gruffalo, Room on the Broom and loads of other children' favourites, this is going to be one stomping, technicolour adventure for Christmas time.


And also lined up just a little earlier, prep for some side-splitting as kids suggest the narrative of the new improvised musical as West End favourites Showstoppers bring the Christmas Kids' Show to Walthamstow. Nothing (too) rude please. 


And for the really little ones, all the fun of interactive workshops up in our studio spaces.
