Antarctica

At the bottom of our planet, lies the South Pole: a magical, wind-whipped world of snow, ice and some of the most wondrous creatures on Earth including slip-sliding penguins, cheeky kelp gulls and mysterious creatures of the deep.

In fact, only the bravest of explorers have ever set foot there. Could you be one of them?

This Christmas, our Studio is once again transformed into a wintry wonderland for our younger audiences to enjoy, as the incomparably brilliant Olivier Award-winning Little Bulb (Four Seasons, Hibernation, CBeebies’ The Nutcracker) whisk you away on an unforgettable journey full of clowning, puppets and plenty of snowy surprises.
