Highland Perthshire & Pitlochry Events
Events In and Around Highland Perthshire
Pitlochry Festival Theatre
Delivering some much-needed Christmas sparkle this winter!
Designed to comply with social distancing measures, The Magic of Christmas will see visitors taken on a tour of the venues, with the experience including a magical forest, Santa in Lapland and a journey into space.
Pitlochry Festival Theatre’s artistic director Elizabeth Newman said: “Christmas should be a time to get together, a time for escape and to look after others, a time for light, hope and joy.
“We’ve all lost so much this year but especially children and with pantos and Christmas shows cancelling, Covid was taking away the joy and magic of Christmas too.
“We were determined, if there was any possible way, we wouldn’t let that happen.”
“Together with our good friends at OnFife, starting from the point of safety and social distancing, we envisioned then developed an experience that was affordable and accessible for everyone – both financially and physically – that would finally allow us to come together, be entertained, be excited, and look forward.”
The Magic of Christmas will be at Pitlochry Festival Theatre from November 27 to December 23 2020 - Booking at Pitlochry Festival Theatre are also open for the theatre’s Friends and Supporters, and opens to the wider public from September 22nd 2020.
