Bridlington Spa presents a Paul Holman Associates production: Jack and the Beanstalk. The pantomime adventure that grows and grows! 14th December 2024 to 5th January 2025.

Sat 7th – Sun 15th December 2024, 2.30pm | 7.30pm
Join the 1812 Theatre company at Helmsley Arts Centre for the ever popular Panto!
Directed by Natasha Jones
Geppetto, an old toy maker, always longed for a son of his own. One starry night, with a little help from the Blue Fairy and a cheeky little cricket, his wish came true and his latest puppet, Pinocchio, came to life! But the magical puppet with no strings catches the eye of the evil showman Stromboli who will stop at nothing to get his hands on the enchanted toy. With the help of Dame Mamma Mia and her hapless son Lampwick from the local pizzeria, will Pinocchio learn in time what it takes to be a ‘real boy’? Find out in the pantomime with no strings attached!
We hope you’ll join us at HAC to enjoy this traditional tale, told in our own fun, silly and raucous way!

Maybe the stories you’ve heard about Jack Frost might not be all true! Join Jack and his friends Oslo the Rabbit and Blue the Winter Sprite, as they race across the world to make Jack’s one wish come true – to be home for Christmas! Could that home be in East Yorkshire? Wrap up warm for a frosty adventure this December.

Sewerby Winter Woodland is back, 6th to 22nd December 2024!
An all-new spectacular display of lights sounds, and special effects will bring the grounds to life for a great evening out this festive season. This year’s event will include new light installations for 2024 including Gingerbread Lane and a light tunnel, a new theme and characters to meet.
Can you rescue Christmas? The fairytale villagers are having a fantastic festive celebration in the Winter Woodland, and you’re all invited! There’s going to be music, dancing, and the magical Golden Goose is kindly using some of her magic to create beautiful lights throughout the woodland. But someone’s not happy about it… the dastardly Old King Troll has sent troll minions from under his bridge to capture Golden Goose and spoil the festivities! But fear not! The fabulous feline Puss in Boots and his pantomime pals have embarked on a quest to save the day.
So why not join us this December on a journey into the Winter Woodland and help Puss defeat the darkness with the biggest and brightest magical light show yet, all in time to celebrate a very merry Christmas at Sewerby Hall and Gardens!

Book tickets in advance on the Sewerby website.

Aladdin
Sponsored by Boyes
Friday 29th November – Saturday 28th December 2024
This Christmas we’re revisiting another classic. The story of a poor boy from a distant land, tricked by a sorcerer into retrieving a remarkable lamp from a magical cave… we all know this one.
Or do we…?
Because what if that cave was more magical than Aladdin or the sorcerer had ever imagined? What if the cave he wandered into isn’t the cave he wanders out of? What if, in fact, Aladdin finds himself outside Hairy Bob’s cave on a cold winter’s night?
A wind ravaged Marine Drive is no place for a lad in threadbare clothes and sandals. He’ll need to get from Scarboresia (oh yes) back to his home, but it’ll take more than a genie’s three wishes – especially when he’s blown the first two on hot chocolate and a Parka!
From the team who brought you Cinderella and Beauty and the Beast, expect a brand new adventure packed with silliness, thrills, spills, singalongs and fantastical family fun.
From £10
