Interactive festive musical pantomime by Honalee Media, with children's TV star Chris Jarvis as the voice of Dasher the Reindeer.
Santa's Best Ever Christmas! is back at the YMCA Theatre this December, running from 5 December to 23 December. It's a festive musical presented by Honalee Media, and it follows last year's sell-out run, so if you're planning to take the kids, it's worth getting your dates sorted early rather than waiting until the week before.
The show is an interactive adventure, which is a good way of saying the audience gets involved rather than just sitting and watching. The big draw is that every child gets a present from Santa, so it's as much about the goodie bag as it is about what's happening on stage. It's a family-friendly panto, and it's designed to be something you can bring the whole brood along to.
On the voice side of things, children's TV star Chris Jarvis provides the voice of Dasher the Reindeer, so there's a recognisable name behind one of the characters. The production is put on by Honalee Media, and it sits alongside the venue's other Christmas offerings, so it's one of a few festive things they've got running at the same time.

As for the venue, the YMCA Theatre is part of the Scarborough YMCA complex on St Thomas Street, a 290-seat space that stages plenty of productions throughout the year, including a busy summer season and a traditional panto. They produce and present a fair few of their own shows too, so they're used to putting on this kind of thing. Tickets start from £10, and the run goes from 5 December through to 23 December, giving you plenty of dates to choose from before the big day.
