TaleGate Theatre Productions hit the perfect combination of witty humour, fantastic music and the extra sparkle for which they have become known in this fabulously funny and brilliantly bouncy musical adaptation of Nicholas Allan’s much loved book. It’s a cold Christmas Eve on the snowy stress of Victorian London, and preparations for another meagre Christmas are well underway. But not for Ebeneezer Scrooge – the cruellest, wealthiest woman in town. Featuring brand-new music from Kristen Anderson-Lopez and Robert Lopez, writers of the unforgettable Let it Go, this is one of London’s unmissable Christmas shows.

He wrote his first novel when he was 14, a story about a murder in a school. He sent it to Macmillan who, although they did not accept it, asked to see his next. Nicholas studied painting at the Slade School of Art. During this time he had his first radio play broadcasted by BBC Radio 4. He then completed an MA in Creative Writing at the University of East Anglia.This book can be used for so many different areas of the EYFS and National Curriculum and children can really have fun with the book developing their own ideas. How I would use this book as part of the run up to Christmas would be over a series of lessons across the curriculum. I would use it for children to write their list to Santa for literacy. For Maths we could look At counting and exploring number bonds. Children could also make their own version and as a fabulous finish we could make the food in story for a party. The beloved animated film that always gives us chills is now a musical playing in the West End to much fanfare. Mother Goose is the ultimate theatrical feast – full of fun, farce and surprises that will make you honk out loud.
