Following the success of last year’s run, our adaptation of Tove Jansson’s The Fir Tree — Christmas Comes to Moominvalley — returns to delight audiences of all ages!

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 will be captivated by the lovable Moomintroll, his parents, Moominmamma and Moominpappa and all their friends, with breathtaking circus, stunning imagery, enchanting storytelling, and magical music. 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.

For ages 3-103

Produced especially for The Moomins 80th anniversary and as part of Jacksons Lane’s 50th birthday programme. Previews take place on the 5th December 2025.
