About

Christmas Eve… and magic is about to begin! Clara and Fritz can barely contain their excitement, but their constant squabbling is threatening to burst the holiday bubble. Banished to bed for their bratty behaviour, the siblings drift into a restless sleep and suddenly their world transforms.

Join us in the dazzling Toy Kingdom that bursts with colour and courage. And danger. The wicked Mouse King is spreading havoc across the realm and Clara and Fritz must rise to the challenge to save the day.
