Treat the whole family to a magical festive adventure that’s simply too good to miss! From the moment he pops out of the oven, the Gingerbread Man is off on a whirlwind escapade – dodging danger, outsmarting hungry pursuers and proving that even the smallest biscuit can be the biggest hero.  Join him as he races through town, escapes a greedy goose, hitches a ride with a cunning fox and discovers whether a gingerbread man can really board a train!

Brought to life by the brilliant Stuff and Nonsense Theatre Company, this delightful retelling if packed with the enchanting puppetry, energetic live action, toe-tapping music and laugh-out-loud fun on a stunningly imaginative set. Perfect for families aged three to eighty-three, it’s joyful, gentle, and bursting with charm – no scary bits, just irresistible entertainment (though arriving hungry is not recommended).
