The aliens are excited,
As tomorrow’s Christmas Day,
So instead of stealing underpants,
They’re giving them away!
​
This Christmas at Curve join a super-charged rabble of aliens and Santa Claus, as they spread festive knicker cheer across Curve, in our brand-new stage show of Claire Freedman and Ben Cort‘s picture book, ALIENS LOVE PANTA CLAUS.
Adapted and lyrics by Chandni Mistry (THE OWL WHO CAME FOR CHRISTMAS), directed by Julia Thomas (GIRAFFES CAN’T DANCE and GEORGE’S MARVELLOUS MEDICINE) and packed with catchy songs and lyrics from Jude Taylor (PIRATES LOVE UNDERPANTS), this magical family adventure will be full of intergalactic joy, starry surprises and rocket fuelled memory-making for all!
ALIENS LOVE PANTA CLAUS is suitable for children (and aliens) aged 3+
