Celebrating our sixth year at Hampton Hill Theatre
The Hampton Hill Christmas Show 2026
Ellie & Starlight’s Christmas Adventure
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 team behind Ellie & Starlight the Musical, playwright Ken Mason and producer Stephen Leslie 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 children 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.
Ellie and Starlight embark on a difficult journey across snowy mountains where they overcome lots of different challenges on their way to the North Pole. Can you help them to find Father Christmas?
This atmospheric and festive production is the perfect family show to get you into the Christmas spirit. Suitable for children aged 3 – 8yrs.
