Christmas Heroes

Be a Christmas Hero and give the gift of theatre
Our annual Christmas Hero appeal is back and we need your help! Support us to bring hundreds of local children and their families to experience the joy of theatre this festive season.
Let's make 2025 the best year yet!
With your support, we are hoping to bring more children and families than ever this year to experience our 2025 pantomime, Beauty and the Beast.
For every £20 donated, we can bring one child to experience the magic of the theatre. For every £80 donated we can bring four children and a carer to enjoy a show.
They will receive a VIP ticket to see our festive family pantomime, Beauty and the Beast, a show programme and a free ice cream.

Be a Christmas Hero
Pantomime is often a child’s first experience of theatre but for many children and their families in Kirklees, a festive trip to the theatre just isn’t possible. With your support, our Christmas Hero appeal enables those in our community, who need it the most, to experience the absolute joy that pantomime brings.
This Christmas, you can be a hero!
Pantomime creates magic, offers escapism and a chance for children and young people to be inspired. We will work with dozens of other local charities to invite children and families from across Kirklees to experience the magic of theatre, but we need your help.
If you can support our appeal this year, we’d be so grateful. Every donation, no matter the amount, can make a real difference to a child right here in your local community.
This season, give the gift of theatre.
Be the magic.
Be a Christmas Hero.

You can donate online or at Box Office, either in person or by calling 01484 430528.
Thank you for your support.
