CRISS CROSS CHRISTMAS



(Bryan Hiles, Clare Mortimer & Marc Kay)

This festive season take the little ones to Suncoast Casino Zone to enjoy an original, delightful merry tale titled Criss Cross Christmas.

Renowned actress Clare Mortimer has penned this charming play especially for the young ones which promises to be full of laughter, song, and dance. Enthusiastic children even get to be a part of the play with audience participation.

Joining Mortimer on stage for this comic Christmas story are much-loved children’s theatre actors Bryan Hiles (Peter Pan, Cinderella, Snow White, Rumplestiltskin) as Holly and Marc Kay as Noel (Jungle Book, Robin Hood, Peter Pan).

Poor hapless elf Holly is being dragged from mall to mall to sell Christmas cheer in the form of toys, and sweets (and things, things, things!) by the tireless terrible duo of Noel the gluttonous reindeer and Carole the warbling, horrid little fairy. As the tale unfolds, Noel and Carole continue to try and convince their audience - and Holly - that Christmas is about getting, spending and eating as much as you can, whilst little Holly feels certain it must mean something else. He is unfortunately pitted against very stubborn little companions indeed!

Holly needs help, so come along and give him a hand persuading these two very spoilt Christmas characters!

Criss Cross Christmas runs from December 7 to 24 each morning at 11h00 at The Zone, Suncoast Casino and Entertainment World. Tickets R50 booked through Computicket, at the door or contact Ailsa on 083 250 2690.
