Where Do All The Kittiwakes Go At Christmas?

Performed by SHANNON MCLEAN & MALCOLM SHIELDS

Come to Live Theatre for a deliciously wintry new  play this Christmas!

Sprinkled with ideas from local schoolchildren, this festive tale will have the whole family squawking with laughter!

Ever wondered where all those cheeky seaside birds go when Christmas comes and there aren’t any fish and chips left to steal?

Well this alternative Christmas play will answer that very question. Hosted by two REAL LIFE Kittiwakes, you might start your story in shivery Newcastle but in no time you will be flying around the world, meeting all kinds of outrageous feathery friends and maybe even (shhhhhh!) learning the secret to a long and happy life….

All aboard the Kittiwake express! It’s going to be bumpy!
