The Pirates of Christmas Island
Now – Saturday 24 Dec @ East Yorkshire & The Deep
Following a sold-out tour last Christmas, She Productions are back this December with this brand-new family musical. The Pirates of Christmas Island celebrates the lesser-known stories of history’s Pirate Queens as they unite through courage, teamwork and swashbuckling songs. This production explores environmental responsibility, kindness and teamwork – so we’re bringing the larger-than-life ‘Java Jellies’ along with our four pirates for a Christmas adventure not to be missed!
We’re touring to libraries in Hull and the East Riding, and there’s even a special, one-off performance at The Deep!

The Rolling Stones Story
Thursday 15 Dec @ Hull City Hall
The Rolling Stones have dominated Rock ’n’ Roll music since the 1960s and were at the forefront of the British Invasion of bands that conquered the US in 1964. They ran neck and neck with The Beatles in the popularity stakes with the late sixties and early seventies considered by many as their Golden Age.
You can now relive all these classic hits in The Rolling Stones Story, a high-energy concert celebrating the music of the world’s greatest Rock ‘n’ Roll band. ‘Let’s Spend The Night Together’ in the company of Mick and the boys and you will experience a truly authentic Rolling Stones spectacle; complete with an awesome production, the finest musicians and the world’s No.1 Mick Jagger lookalike in Paul Ashworth.
