Riding Lights Theatre Company bring festive joy through Christmas Inn Trouble
Riding Lights Theatre Company are set to bring festive joy to families again this year with a magical new twist on the nativity – Christmas Inn Trouble.
After the success of last year’s Christmas Cracker, the company are preparing for a new production that is set to turn the traditional tale on its head.
There is a lot of bother at The Bethlehem Inn and Spa. The taps are leaking, the rats are squeaking and the rooms are fit to burst. There are so many guests it’s impossible to park your camel and, if things weren’t bad enough, a rascally Roman soldier has come to make sure everything is above board.

Riding Lights Theatre Company is one of the UK’s most productive and long-established independent theatre companies. Founded in York in 1977 the company continues to take innovative, accessible theatre into all kinds of communities far and wide. Their aim is to make theatre make a difference by creating unforgettable, entertaining theatre in response to current issues and the hopes and fears of the world we share.

Oliver Brown, Executive Director and Co CEO of Riding Lights Theatre Company said: ‘We are so excited to bring this fantastically fun and joyful show to The Friargate Theatre this festive season. It’s jam packed with puppets, magic, song and story, bringing you the nativity like you’ve never seen it before!’
The company pride themselves on offering affordable and accessible arts experiences to everyone and so tickets for Christmas Inn Trouble are priced accordingly at just £12.50 each or £40.00 for four people.
Christmas Inn Trouble plays at Friargate Theatre York 20th – 24th December. Tickets are available here.
