Christmas in Exeter Street
37 characters, 7 animals and 10 instruments – all under one roof! Christmas in Exeter Street is the perfect festive treat. Maggie Mistletoe is hosting Christmas. She’s expecting all the usual family members but come Christmas Eve the doorbell won’t stop ringing as guest after unexpected guest arrives! From eccentric Uncle Bartholomew who’s just returned from Australia to Maggie’s five aunts from Abingdon and their three Pekinese dogs, where will they all sleep? Farnham Maltings’ production of Christmas in Exeter Street promises brand new songs, plenty of humour and a generous sprinkle of festive magic. Suitable for anyone aged 3+.
