Jack Frost at The Civic, 14 — 24 December 2018 Tickets from £8.00 — Book now

This December Fidget Theatre bring you Jack Frost – a new music-filled Christmas show about friendship and the joy of joining in – specially commisioned by The Civic.

The story centres around Holly, a little girl who is an eager trumpet player, and her friendship with the magical winter sprite Jack Frost. One day at the school Christmas concert rehearsal Holly notices some strange goings on – frosty patterns appear, icicles form and a window bursts open with an icy gust of wind. Jack Frost, the invisible sprite, is up to mischief and only the children with magic inside them can see him.

Follow Holly’s adventure into the ice-covered fantastical world of the playful though lonely Jack. Together Holly and Jack will make lots of music, have loads of fun and make sure no-one is left outside this Christmas.

Spilling with joy and lots of heart, Jack Frost is a Christmas show for primary school children and their families. Join Jack and Holly alongside Barnsley Civic’s local live band for a frost-filled festive adventure.

Recommended for ages four and up, Fidget Theatre bring a witty and welcoming Christmas show, which explores what it means to feel like you’re on the outside looking in. With charming storytelling, a live band and a super cast, Jack Frost promises to be a festive treat for the whole family.
