ABOUT THE SHOW 📖

Come with us to the little beachside town of Kōwatawata, where Christmas spirit keeps the star on the magical Pōhutukawa tree shining bright.

But when the tree’s sparkling star suddenly loses its shine, Christmas magic begins to disappear. With a dastardly villain plotting to take over, mischievous native wildlife causing chaos, and Santa facing a very serious Christmas crisis, it’s up to a brave bunch of local heroes to save the day!

Packed with cheeky Kiwi humour, colourful characters, magical mayhem, catchy musical favourites, and plenty of opportunities to join in, Saving Santa’s Sparkle is an interactive adventure where the audience is part of the story. Get ready to boo the baddies, cheer for the heroes, sing along, and help bring Santa's sparkle back.
