This Christmas, join The Story Museum for The Royal Christmas Pudding, a feast of story and song in the museum’s magical studio theatre ‘The Woodshed’ Oxford. Featuring traditional stories woven together with original songs and music, this festive treat promises to give even the hungriest of appetites a happily ever after.
The show is inspired by the dwindling tradition of ‘Stir-Up-Sunday’, originating in the Victorian era, where families gather to stir the Christmas pudding mix and make a wish. The Royal Christmas Pudding hopes to reintroduce children to this age-old tradition in a musical theatre spectacular where the Christmas pudding is the star. Before the show, families will get a chance to make their own Christmas wishes, by stirring a giant pudding mixture in the theatre foyer.
