The Christmas Elf Inspector
  • Proteus Creation Space, Council Road, Basingstoke
    RG21 3DH
THE CHRISTMAS ELF INSPECTOR is the brand new immersive Christmas show from Scratch Built Productions and Proteus. Perfect for young families as a first theatre experience

Everything is just tickety-boo at Christmas HQ this year. Father Christmas’ good friend the gingerbread man has come to visit (as is customary at this time of year), the halls are decked, the presents are almost wrapped and the reindeer are fit as a fiddle! Surely not even an audit from the Elf and Safety Inspector can dampen the Christmas Spirit amongst the elves…after all Christmas ALWAYS runs smoothly, doesn’t it?

Scratch Built has been creating magical and immersive Christmas shows with Proteus at the Creation Space for the past 11 years. Each Christmas, the team create a brand-new theatrical adventure where audiences follow the story around enchantingly themed rooms, where they will meet funny, colourful characters, interact with the story and take part in hands-on activities.

Over the past 11 years, we have watched children grow up before our eyes as they return year after year as part of their family tradition to experience this truly unique and heartwarming festive adventure, where the children and their grown-ups in the audience are at the heart of the story. We believe that you are never too old to be swept up by the magic of Christmas!
