The Box of Delights played in the Royal Shakespeare Theatre over Christmas 2023.
Orphaned schoolboy Kay Harker is caught up in a battle between two powerful magicians. Can he save Christmas?
'There are tricks...and then there's magic!'
After a seemingly chance encounter on a train, orphaned schoolboy Kay Harker finds himself the guardian of a small wooden box with powers beyond his wildest dreams. Caught up in a battle between two powerful magicians, Kay fights to save not just the people he loves but also the future of Christmas itself.
This fantastically festive production was directed by Justin Audibert (The Taming of the Shrew 2019, The Jew of Malta 2015) and designed by RSC Associate Artist Tom Piper.
The production was based on the original stage production first produced by Wilton’s Music Hall and Hero Productions at Wilton’s Music Hall.
