I see this is coming to London again at Christmas/New year.I wondered did anyone go last year? would you recommend for teenagers or is it too childish?

Thanks

I went last year with our teenagers and they were a bit sneery but that's their loss. There were loads of younger children there and bewitched adults.

Hello WoD. I took 5 kids to this last year, ranging from 7 up to 14. They all had a brilliant time. It is really exciting stuff. I booked it months in advance and we sat on the front row, which was very nice because the kids got a lot of attention. The kids were even more excited because Helena Bonham Carter was sitting just behind us with her little ones. That's a big deal if you're a kid and a Harry Potter fan.

The performers stay on after the show has finished to play with the kids. There is lots of snow and big balls and it is quite magical. Whatever you do don't buy the cheap seats in the balcony though - you don't get to play, you just get to watch everyone else playing.

Would it be odd for just two adults to go?

Adults love it and kids love it and even a goth teenager took an afternoon off from "being cool" and enjoyed it. At the end of the show you see grandparents and toddlers all playing in the snow. Everyone comes out smiling. They don't chase you out immediately afterwards as they know that people like to hang around and play for a bit.
