More Information (Radio Exe is not responsible for external websites)

Following the success of 'The Elves and the Shoemaker' last year, Exeter Northcott Theatre and PaddleBoat Theatre Company have teamed up again.

This year, they're presenting 'The Jolly Christmas Postman,' a magical theatrical adventure based on the beloved book by Janet and Allan Ahlberg.

The Jolly Postman is back, delivering festive cheer across Fairytale Land to characters like Red Riding Hood and the Gingerbread Man.

Expect giggles, gasps, and even a sprinkle of snow in this beautifully staged festive tale. 

Packed with music, gentle humour, and interactive moments, it's perfect for ages 3-8.

And in the spirit of giving, the theatre is continuing its 'Pay It Forward' scheme, allowing audience members to donate and gift tickets to local children who might not otherwise be able to attend.

Last year, the programme was a huge success, bringing the magic of theatre to children as young as three.

Hundreds of tickets were donated, and they're hoping for an even bigger impact this year.
