Originally written as a Covid-safe panto for 2 actors in the winter of 2020, we later developed a 3-actor version for the summer of 2021 with support from Arts Council England. It was a joyful time, as we all emerged from lockdowns and every show was a delight. Now in 2026, we have returned to a simple 2-actor format and are developing a gentler, multi-sensory production especially suited for younger audiences. ​

With thanks to the creatives who have helped develop 'Elves' over the years, some of whom feature in the gallery below!  Ben Lindsey-Clark (writer, director, actor), Louisa Lindsey-Clark (producer), and actors Lisa Davis, Laurence Aldridge, Darren Matthews, Nim McQuinn, Izzy Lindsey-Clark
