A family-friendly show that’s great for a festive family outing or celebration.

What it’s about

In the village square, the locals are amazed. A dazzling star, much like the Christmas star, appears to light up the entire village. Its arrival coincides with that of a young woman who begins restoring an old shop.

But what is the connection between the two? And what kind of relationship does this mysterious stranger have with some of the villagers? Why has she come to renovate an abandoned shop in such a forgotten place, and what does she plan to turn it into? The mystery unfolds…

Featuring the most beautiful Christmas carols and all your favorite holiday characters, this festive production promises to enchant audiences throughout the holiday season. Performed in three languages—Arabic, French, and English.

Rudolph, Frosty, Gingerbread, the Christmas Tree, the Elves, and Santa Claus are all waiting to celebrate Christmas with you in this joyful Bouffons production. And many surprises await!
