After last year’s five-star festive performance The Holly King and The Oak King, award-winning immersive arts creators Wild Rumpus return to Battersea Arts Centre with a new family adventure.
Across Europe, mischievous Yuletide traditions have run riot and it’s up to YOU to save Winter from chaos. Guided by the rousing ‘Resistance Rabbit’, wander through enchanted lands and meet characters intent on causing disruption to the most wonderful time of the year.
Can you join the mission to bring harmony back to the holidays?
“Enchanting. Akin to walking with Alice on her adventures in Wonderland.”

- Sun 21 Dec – 09:30am, 10:15am, 11am, 11:45am
A sensory adapted performance means that intense and flashing lightings are reduced; loud sounds are lowered; there is less emphasis on text-based elements of the show; and there is more space for free play and exploration rather than following the narrative.
