  • The Ceilidh Tree 
A magical sensory treat especially created for all children aged 3-5 years and their families

Platform (The Bridge, Easterhouse)
Friday 12th and Saturday 13th December, 5pm
To book call: 0141 276 9696 (opt 1)

It's winter... the shortest day of the year and in a clearing stands a lone tree. The forest creatures are gathering for a special moment, a moment when everything is transformed. Each has a story to tell and a gift to bring. It's time to huddle up, tell stories, sing songs and wait.

Combining magical lighting, storytelling, puppetry and song this multi-sensory tale celebrates our forest friends, the turn of the year and the season of good cheer in a truly inclusive and accessible way.

Interactive and fully accessible with limited audience numbers so booking is advised!

The performance will last approximately 30-40 minutes (no interval).
  • Molly Whuppie 
Molly Whuppie is back in Glasgow for Christmas!

This special Christmas production of Molly Whuppie is for everyone from 3-93! It features live harp and fiddle from two of Scotland 's finest musicians - Mary MacMaster and Gavin Marwick and the marvellous Ros Sydney as the Giant.

Molly Whuppie and her mother and sister live happily by the seashieore below the great mountain. A great winter descends and freezes even the sea. How can they celebrate The Winter Feast when there's nothing to eat? Then Molly Whuppie spies the golden towers of a fine castle high above the treetops. One night she bravely tiptoes out of the house and up the mountain to find the King to ask for food. Little does she know that to reach the King she must cross The Bridge of One Hair or that deep in the forest there is... a giant! So begins a great adventure where Molly finds that nothing is what it seems and that she is braver and cleverer than she ever imagined!

Molly Whuppie was first adapted by Virginia Radcliffe in 2001 and this will be its sixth outing. As well as touring it has had Christmas runs at The Traverse, Edinburgh and The Byre, St Andrews in 2003 and 2006.
