Antarctica

At the bottom of our planet, lies the South Pole: a magical, wind-whipped world of snow, ice and some of the most wondrous creatures on Earth including slip-sliding penguins, cheeky albatrosses and mysterious creatures of the deep. In fact, only the bravest of explorers have ever set foot there. Could you be one of them? This Christmas, our Adventure Theatre is once again transformed into a wintry wonderland for our younger audiences to enjoy, as the incomparably brilliant Olivier Award-winning Little Bulb (The Nutcracker) return to Polka to whisk you away on an unforgettable journey full of clowning, puppets and plenty of snowy surprises. About Polka Theatre We opened our doors in 1979 as the UK’s first theatre venue dedicated exclusively to children. We deliver a year-round programme of exceptional and exciting new theatre and creative learning opportunities for 0-12 year olds. Alongside this, we showcase international productions, offer a home to touring children’s theatre companies and support diverse artists to develop new work for children. We produce between 7-10 productions each year, with selected shows touring to children across the UK and internationally in schools, libraries, community and theatre spaces. Polka has always led the way in inclusive practice. We were the first venue to create what we now widely know as a Relaxed Performance back in 2006 and continue to include a range of accessible performances in our year-round programme.
