Christmas
Quangle Wangle



A hilarious celebration of Edward Lear’s nonsense poetry, which has had children dancing in their seats from Shetland to Dumfries.

Stella and Stan are waiting for Christmas. They find a mysterious parcel, which leads them to discover the Quangle Wangle alone on his Crumpety Tree.

A mass of strange visitors arrive and change his life forever ... the Golden Grouse, the Orient Calf, Mr & Mrs Canary ... then they sail to the land where the Jumblies live, to dance by the light of the Mulberry Moon...

We are the Jumblies,
We go wherever we please,
we're not afraid that the world is big,
we don't care a button, we don't care a fig!
