Raymond Briggs' Father Christmas Relaxed

Join Father Christmas as he awakes from a dream of sun, sea and sand only to find it is the busiest day of the year: Christmas Eve.

Watch as he prepares for his Christmas deliveries, feeds his reindeer and finally takes flight into the snowy night.

Back for another brilliant year, Christmas isn’t Christmas without this Lyric Hammersmith family favourite, co-produced with the Olivier Award-nominated Pins & Needles Productions.

This is a Relaxed Performance – During the Relaxed Performance, the house lights will stay on, doors are open, and visitors can come and go as they please. The theatre also adjusts lighting and sound levels to create a more comfortable environment and provides additional wheelchair spaces. These performances will also feature Audio Description and will be BSL interpreted.
