I wish…I wish…I wish… Every year, the Spirits of Christmas gather to grant one aggressively average child a special Christmas wish. This wish could make the world a better place of puppies and kittens, of sunshine and rainbows, except -
Except they didn’t count on Bertha. Bertha wishes for an avalanche of presents. This isn’t how it’s supposed to go! Determined to get the ‘right’ wish, the Spirits of Christmas rewind time until Bertha gets it right – but time is awfully fragile, and Bertha can be awfully stubborn...
Written by Daniel Orejon, directed by Catherine Ward-Stoddart. Performed by the Strange Town 8-11 group (Fridays).
