See it if You want a fun, festive family-friendly show
Don't see it if It's aimed at families so if you're a group of adults, I'd give this a miss (or bring along the children in your family!)
See it if If you have kids or are a kid heart. If you love immersive Christmas experiences that are interactive, light hearted & visually beautiful

See it if You love Christmas and Santa!

See it if You have small kids
Don't see it if You were waiting for full immersive show for adults with digital art

“My kids found it thoroughly delightful...My biggest gripe is the price. It certainly feels out of whack with the price of most London kids’ theatre. Perhaps this is what they need to charge to cover their costs, but for what is essentially a sweet little children’s show, the sheer expense takes some of the sparkle off ‘Wishmas’.”

“A great deal of money, talent and imagination has clearly been hurled at this project... it is entrancing for kids and will be a useful entertainment for families who feel like doing something festive but don’t fancy spending a couple of hours in a theatre.”

“ ‘Wishmas’ has been beautifully designed to create a world in itself. Importantly though, a lot of care and detail has gone into crafting the story so every element serves a purpose and doesn't feel like it is solely included to kill time. As a piece of theatre it was impressive how easy it was to immerse yourself into the world. Getting the tone just right so it is entertaining for children but never crosses a line to scare them, it captures the Christmas spirit perfectly.”
