Christmas is usually ten year old Noël’s favourite time of year, but this season won’t be quite so jolly as Noël’s mother mysteriously disappeared one December evening, and Santa Claus has suspended his traditional Christmas gift delivery service, because children these days are just so ungrateful. Noël is afraid to report her mother’s disappearance in case she is placed in the orphanage and to make things even worse Noël can’t sing her part in the Christmas show because she used to practise it with her mum. And who is the mysterious newcomer watching over the park’s homeless community? Best-selling author Eoin Colfer and award winning composer Liam Bates have written a Christmas musical that captures the magic of the festive season for all with Hana Kelly as Noël and Stephen Carlile as Nick.
The Orchestra of Ireland, and Wexford Chorus with Celtic Voices.
