No family Christmas would be complete without taking in a show full of yuletide magic.
A new production of The Wind in the Willows fits the bill and will be taking to the stage at Lincoln Arts Centre from Thursday, December 10 to Sunday, December 20.
The adaptation of Kenneth Grahame’s classic follows Mole, Ratty and Badger as they try to keep the mischievous Mr Toad out of trouble.
The production features live music, vibrant imagery and plenty of mischief, bringing the much-loved story of friendship, adventure and home to life for audiences of all ages.
Following the success of last year’s Alice in Wonderland, Lincoln Arts Centre and the University of Lincoln’s School of Creative Arts and Design have reunited to create the show.
The partnership brings together the university’s creative talent and the Arts Centre’s commitment to developing new artists and ambitious live performance.
This year’s production also sees a new partnership with Lincolnshire Wildlife Trust, linking the story’s celebration of nature with the organisation’s work to protect wildlife and natural habitats.
A photoshoot at Whisby Nature Reserve helped bring the production’s wildlife-inspired world to life and highlight the importance of conservation.
There will be a British Sign Language performance on Saturday, December 12 at 2pm and a relaxed performance on Sunday, December 13 at 2pm.
Tickets cost £15 for adults and £10 for children, available from www.lincolnartscentre.co.uk or by calling the box office on 01522 837600.
