Molly and Madeleine The Christmas Stowaways
90 minute theatre performance for all the family
​
Based on an original idea by Gracie Thompson (aged 8 1/4 ), "Molly and Madeleine..." follows two estranged sisters on a journey of self discovery as they stowaway in Santa's sack and are whisked off around the world and end up stranded in the North Pole.
Frightened and alone, they are befriended by the Elves of the North Pole, and with their help, learn how to 'ride the Northern Lights' to get them home just in time for Christmas morning...
​
A magical spectacular journey for all the family at Christmas time.​

"I've just managed to settle a very excited Girl Child in bed after going to see 'Molly and Madeleine: The Christmas Stowaways' - if you're local and haven't booked tickets yet, do it while you can! I was blown away by how good it was: creative, innovative and full of heart. As a theatre graduate I've seen a lot of plays and I can't remember a time I grinned ear to ear quite as much as I did this evening! I also love that Codswallop CIC had a relaxed performance so I didn't have to worry about Girl Child getting overexcited or overwhelmed. She said on a scale of 1 to 100 she'd give it 1000!
(This is #notaspon - I just get very excited when I see amazing theatre!)"

"We came to your relaxed performance last night with my 2 kids and thought it was fab! We especially loved the black and white animated sequence when the girls arrived at the North Pole. It has inspired my 10 year old wannabe animator."
​
"Wow!!!!!!!!!!!!! Absolutely INCREDIBLE production!!!! We were wrapt from the outset. After my 3 year old declared she didn’t want to see it her eyes were out on stalks for the whole performance. Riveting production, hilarious, endearing puppet elves & awesome acting. Great, relevant, message. Brilliant idea and love the fact it was conceived in a little girl’s mind. 5*****!"​
