Christmas Comes to Moominvalley performance at Jacksons Lane

Step into the enchanting world of Moominvalley this Christmas at Jacksons Lane as we celebrate the 80th anniversary of global phenomenon The Moomins with Christmas Comes to Moominvalley, a new adaptation of Tove Jansson’s classic tale, The Fir Tree.

The Moomins are woken up from their winter sleep to be told that ‘Christmas’ is coming. The only trouble is, the puzzled Moomins have no idea who, or what ‘Christmas’ is…

Audiences of all ages will be captivated by the lovable Moomintroll, his parents, Moominmamma and Moominpappa and all their friends, with breathtaking circus, stunning imagery, enchanting storytelling, and magical music. The Moomin family demonstrate their special values of tolerance, kindness and integrity, as they prepare for their first Christmas – helping us understand what the festive season is really all about.

For ages 3-103.

Produced especially for The Moomins 80th anniversary and as part of Jacksons Lane’s 50th birthday programme. Previews take place on the 6th December 2024.

Christmas Comes to Moominvalley at Jacksons Lane (269a Archway Road, London N6 5AA) from 6 December 2024 until 5 January 2025. Please visit Jacksons Lane’s website (opens a new window) for showtimes and tickets.
