Funny Father Christmas - Starring Aaron Mcilroy & Haylea Hounsom

Aaron McIlroy is Funny Father Christmas - a large and jolly man who spreads joy to millions of children, but this year he is having a mid-life crisis and is refusing to come out of his “man cave”.

His wife, Mary Christmas (Haylea Hounsom), and a team of talented elves (the kids of DanSing Academy), have to save the day - Christmas day. 

Staring Aaron McIlroy, Patrick Kenny, Haylea Hounsom and the kids from DanSing Academy, this is a madcap musical comedy the entire family (even dads) will enjoy.

Tickets available at WebTickets or Pick n Pay.
