Snooze you lose!

Tickets for this year’s Christmas Show, Sleeping Beauty, have been selling fast and we now only have limited availability left for just two of our matinee schools performances. So there is no time like the present to book a festive treat for your pupils before the final schools performances are filled!

The traditional tale of the sleeping princess has been revamped into a weird and wonderful adaptation - think Tim Burton meets Shrek meets “Once Upon A Time”.


Combining royal romances, flatulent fairies, outrageous ogres and sinister spells, this gleefully gruesome take on the classic fairytale is the perfect way finish up term before winding down for the Christmas holidays.

Remember… 


 All schools tickets are just £8 each for any seat in the house + 1 free teacher with every 10 tickets bought.

How to book


Call our Box Office on 0141 429 0022 or click here to complete the online booking form or download it and return it to us at the Theatre.

 P.S. We still have plenty of availability in our evening and weekend shows.

Competition - Design the Sleeping Beauty programme cover

Every year we ask local school children to design a cover image for the programme of our Christmas show, which this year will be Sleeping Beauty. Fairy tale misfits abound in this weird and wonderful adaptation, with original music, where Tim Burton meets Shrek meets “Once Upon a Time”! A fun, family adventure to celebrate the festive season.

Pupils from Primary Schools in the Greater Glasgow area are invited to draw or paint an image which they feel represents Sleeping Beauty. We would like entries that are as creative as possible and students should be encouraged to let their imaginations run wild!

The child with the winning entry will see their design printed on the official programme which will be given to everyone who sees the show - over 20,000 people! In addition, they will receive up to 30 tickets for their class to watch the production and the chance to meet the cast after the show.


Terms and conditions:
1. Entries should measure H 300mm x W 140mm (approx. one third A3 size) and be portrait format.   
2. Entries should be the image only and not include any text such as ‘Sleeping Beauty’ or ‘Citizens Theatre’ as we will add that.
3. Please ensure that each entry has the child’s name, age and school on the back of the artwork.
4. We will endeavor to accommodate the winning class in their first choice performance, subject to availability.  

Submit entries by MON 5 NOVEMBER
Please post to: Jennifer Edelsten, Citizens Theatre, 119 Gorbals St, Glasgow G5 9DS
