A 45-minute puppetry and storytelling show with songs and interactive fun for children aged 2-5, set in Santa's workshop.
The Littlest Elf comes to Arts Centre Washington on Friday 11 December, with two shows on the one day: 10:30am and 1:30pm. It's a puppetry and storytelling show set in Santa's workshop, aimed at the youngest audiences, and runs for 45 minutes.
The story follows Pip, a tiny elf with big dreams. She's slower than the other elves and never quite perfect, and she spends her time imagining the toy she's made being delivered on Christmas Day. The show brings that world to life by mixing puppetry, storytelling, songs and interactive fun, so the kids aren't just sitting and watching — they're part of it. It's put together for ages 2 to 5, so it's a good fit if you've got a toddler or a preschooler who's starting to get into the Christmas spirit.
The show is part of a wider seasonal programme at Arts Centre Washington. General manager Matt Blyth says it's meant to reflect the creativity of the region by bringing together acclaimed touring theatre, nationally recognised musicians and emerging North East talent, with the aim of making the venue a place where people can discover something new and feel a real sense of belonging. The Littlest Elf sits on the theatre side of that mix, one of the touring acts coming through the centre this winter.
