Riding Lights Theatre Company Presents: 
Christmas Inn Trouble

The nativity like never before!

A Christmas show for families and children, 2025

There is a lot of bother at The Bethlehem Inn and Spa. The taps are leaking, the rats are squeaking and the rooms are fit to burst. There are so many guests it's impossible to park your camel and, if things weren't bad enough, a rascally Roman soldier has come to make sure everything is above board...

​

Join Riding Lights Theatre Company as they bring a Christmas comedy filled with silly shepherds, some very (un)wise men and a young family who have no idea what they've let themselves in for.

It's packed with puppets, magic, song and story, bringing you the nativity like you've never seen it before. It's so good you'll want Christmas every year!

​

Christmas Inn Trouble is a fast and friendly festive farce and the perfect way to start your holiday cheer!

Audience responses to our Christmas Shows:

​

"Our kids don't sit still for more than 5mins, but they were transfixed throughout!"​

“Absolutely fantastic! Had me laughing right the way through!"

"That was the funniest thing I've ever seen. The best thing ever. I loved it."

"I couldn't stop smiling all the way through that."
