THE CHRISTMAS CONSPIRACY
Down the stairs, along the corridors, through shadowy rooms, to just beyond the glowing fireplace where the Christmas Tree glints. A few small steps for a man, an epic journey for a tin soldier and a Christmas Tree Fairy.
Desperate to find their identity in a cupboard that bleeps and winks and buzzes with plastic and micro-circuitry, the toys set off to find some answers.
Why is that mysterious family back under the tree yet again? Why, after all these years, does nobody know who they are? And why hasn't anyone unwrapped the truth behind THE CHRISTMAS CONSPIRACY... until now...
Meanwhile, Rufus the toy pirate has a rush of Kapok to the head as he sees his dictatorship in peril. He summons the dreaded Smee, arachnid with attitude, and the hunt is on. Everything may be hush-hush, but it's not going to be such a silent night...
With its characteristic blend of whimsical humour, memorable music, slapstick comedy and magical glimpses of the first Christmas story, Riding Lights brings you the greatest thriller ever told.
The show toured to around 60 primary schools throughout Cheshire, Oxforshire, Manchester and the Birmingham area in the run-up to Christmas.

ON CHRISTMAS NIGHT
Bethlehem is feeling the strain... the inns are full to bursting, the census is stretching local bureaucrats to their limit, and the 7th legion of the Roman Army appears to be under the command of a sheep.
But still the visitors keep arriving: a young couple in desperate need of a place to stay, an angel, a star... The only people prepared to help are Wayne and Mabel - two daft shepherds with single figure IQs, a flask of Granny's special brew and a talent for getting into trouble.
Will they persuade the inhospitable innkeeper to give Mary and Joseph a room? Will Brutus realise he's been taking orders from Snowy the sheep? Where did that star come from? And why? Is the population going mad? Or is something strange and wonderful going to happen ON CHRISTMAS NIGHT in this little town?
With its characteristic blend of whimsical humour, memorable music, slapstick comedy and magical glimpses of the first Christmas story, Riding Lights will provide the ideal starter to your Christmas celebrations.
This show toured to around 60 primary schools in the North East before Christmas.
