Ellie & Starlight’s Christmas Adventure was developed following the success of Ellie & Starlight the Musical which opened at Hampton Hill Theatre in April 2019. The Christmas show also debuted at Hampton Hill Theatre, and was the first Hampton Hill Christmas show produced by Stephen Leslie Productions.

“This atmospheric and festive production is the perfect family fun show to foster the Christmas spirit. It has spell-binding moments of magic and excitement which build to a climax, where there’s even a chance to see Santa himself … in Walton.”
Sadie Williams, Mark Aspen Reviews December 2023
Ellie and her best Friend Starlight the Polar Bear are off on another adventure, only this time they are heading for the North Pole to find Father Christmas!
From the creators of Ellie & Starlight the Musical, playwright Ken Mason and writer Sarah Watson bring you Ellie & Starlight’s Christmas Adventure.
This heart-warming magical Christmas story is a tale of a little girl’s determination to find Father Christmas and tell him that all the boys and girls in her village have had to move to a new place.
She must reach the North Pole before Christmas Eve or it will be too late and none of the children will get a Christmas present this year.
“Loved it! The production was very good and well targeted for the audience.” –
M Mills, Audience Member

After a successful run at Hampton Hill Theatre in December 2023 producer Stephen Leslie is looking forward to reviving the show at other theatres in future years.
With a cast of three and minimal but impressive set, the show lends itself to small and mid-scale venues.
The script is available upon request.
