Christmas Lights

Snow is falling and the nights are drawing in, Winter is here and Christmas is just around the corner. Join friends, Alvie and Kit as they embark on a playful mission to light up their house in time for Christmas. But what happens when your Christmas Lights seem to have a mind of their own? Join award-winning company, Filskit Theatre, for this festive performance that shows us how the power of friendship can light up the dark. Christmas Lights is a highly visual show with very little dialogue; the actors will perform many words using British Sign Language (BSL). Approx. 50 mins. Audiences will be invited to stay and play with the performers in the snow-covered garden after the show. 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.
