Billi always takes things too far: making up stories, stealing people’s glasses and generally being an all-round pain. So, when Billi discovers a book about Chris-T-Mas – a holiday celebrated long ago – the group are understandably hesitant to trust them.
To make matters worse, they can’t even check as the book has been lost near the den of Avalanche – the grouchiest and most monstrous polar bear left on the ice!
But Billi isn’t afraid (though perhaps they should be!) They’re determined to find it and have the best Chris-T-Mas ever…even if they’re not really sure what that truly means.
A light-hearted Christmas comedy-caper across the frozen wilderness. Performed by the Strange Town 8-10s group (Fridays). Written by RJ Hunter and directed by Catherine Ward-Stoddart.
Age 8+
