About Tales from Acorn Wood At Christmas

Norwell Lapley Productions Presents

Based on the favourite stories by Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler

Come and join your friends from Acorn Wood at MAC this winter.

Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler’s beloved Tales from Acorn Wood stories are brought to life on stage in an enchanting, festive lift-the-flap experience. 

This special Christmas show features Squirrel’s Snowman – can you help her find everything she needs to build a snowman? Squirrel is also joined by Poor old Fox who’s lost his socks! Are they in the kitchen or inside the clock? And Rat-a-tat-tat! Who’s that keeping tired Rabbit awake? You can also join in with Pig and Hen’s game of hide-and-seek and discover the special surprise Postman Bear is planning for his friends. 

Packed full of toe-tapping songs, puppetry, and all the friends from Acorn Wood, this beautiful show is the perfect festive treat for all of the family. 

The show is suitable for all ages and perfect for ages 18 months - 6 years. It is a magical memorable festive for the whole family, including older siblings, parents and grandparents.

Relaxed and BSL performances available

Relaxed events at MAC are designed to improve the experience for people with Autistic Spectrum conditions, sensory, motor and communication disorders, learning disabilities and anyone who would benefit from a more adapted environment.

The main lights remain on, the volume is reduced, and we hope you’ll feel comfortable to remain inside should you need to make noises or move involuntarily. We sometimes offer a pre-show introduction to the venue and performers, signalling anything that may be big, loud, or unexpected.

If you need a break, you can speak to our staff and they will point you towards a quiet area to relax.
