[Ad- gifted experience] We do get along to a lot of pantomimes during the holiday season, but Maddie Moate’s Very Curious Christmas at the Garrick Theatre is a Christmas-themed play that doesn’t have any aspect of panto in it – an entertaining break from the traditional! This play is for a younger audience, primarily engaging people Robin’s page and younger. With that said, myself, Amelia and even Kai were interested in a few of the tricks and experiments that were on display.

[Ad- gifted experience] As you may have guessed, it’s Panto season in England, and we have gone to a number of pantos this year! Last year, we saw a performance of Snow White at Fairfield Halls Theatre and previously we have been to the South Mill Arts Centre to see a One Many play, so we were really excited to get along for another Christmas classic. This panto actually leaned heavily on the musical side of things, which was a neat twist on the performance.

[Ad- gifted experience] We do try to fit in as many light trails as possible when it comes to the Christmas season. There are always so many new ones popping up and it’s fantastic to go back to the ones we have previously visited to see how they have changed for the year. Hylands Estate has the first ever light trail that our family went to, many years ago. Enlightened does a variety of different light trails in England, of which we’ve been to quite a few, but Enlightened Hylands Estate holds a special place in our hearts.

[Ad- gifted experience] We are fans of pantomimes and get along to at least one every single year! This year, we were invited to the Harlow Playhouse to check out their Sleeping Beauty pantomime, which featured the dame that they’ve had for the last 10 years, along with Silly Billy, a fan favorite among the locals. Though we’ve been to the Harlow Playhouse for other performances, we’ve not done a panto there, so were all really excited!

[Ad- gifted experience] We have been going to quite a few light walks, so it’s no surprise that we went along to another! Havering Christmas Land is a compact light trail, all for the charity Mind. If you aren’t familiar, Mind is a charity that’s all to do with Mental Health. They raise awareness about mental health stigma, support people living with mental health problems and fight for governmental change for mental health services, which is all fantastic.
