Show Description

This winter, come and gather around the Yuletide fire for a touching and magical new puppet show from PuppetSoup! In this enchanting new piece of puppet theatre, discover how a little dragon saves the Yuletide fire and warms the hearts of all he meets. Long before our modern Christmas, in the times still of fairies, dragons and stone circles, the shortest days draw in and the season of Yule is upon the fairy folk. Get cosy in your seats and join us for an epic snowy escapade to a winter wonderland of exciting tales and great adventures. With firelit storytelling, puppetry and an original music score, PuppetSoup welcomes you to a Yuletide world where magic really does exist. Proudly developed in consultation with young adults from Greenfield Special School in Merthyr Tydfil, this show aims to deliver an exciting and unique Christmas experience for all the family, that is accessible to all. Suitable for ages 5+ and their grown ups, developed with accessibility and sensory experiences in mind, and with BSL for the D/deaf community at every show.

This show has been especially devised in partnership with Greenfield Special Educational School who gave PuppetSoup advice and guidance on making the show more accessible and enjoyable for audiences of all backgrounds. The show has BSL, sensory lighting and verbal and visual storytelling. The main character in this story is a dragon who has a less-able wing and this character was created with input from young people at Greenfield school.
