Presented by Greedy Pig Theatre Company
In the dark of Midwinter, nothing’s more valuable than the light – and no one needs it more than Clementine. But as she darts through the forest, stealing away every last glimmer of brightness, her actions are beginning to draw attention. And when the ever-inquisitive Bo turns up at her hideaway, looking for the so-called ‘stealer of light’, suddenly everything she holds dear is in danger…
This Christmas, the critically acclaimed Greedy Pig Theatre Company (Spoil Me, Peacock, Be), invite you to join them for a bewitching and hilarious festive tale. With enchanting live music, humour for all ages, and Greedy Pig’s signature bold storytelling, The Stolen Winter Light is a fantastic family treat!
