It’s the day before Christmas eve and cheerful chimney-sweep Rudi is cleaning all the chimneys to make sure they are ready for Santa. But Rudi gets a very nasty shock! One very big chimney is well and truly blocked, and not with soot, but with toys! Put there by the dreadful witch Fluella the Fluesy. Wicked Fluella loves grunge and grime and wants to stop Christmas by blocking all the chimneys so that Santa can’t deliver presents. Rudi manages to free the toys – a beautiful Christmas tree fairy, a tin soldier and a very cross Christmas candle. But the trouble is only starting because Santa himself is stuck in the chimney. Rudi and the Toys take on fearsome Fluella and try to free Santa in time for Christmas eve. But she has a mean old mate Freddy The Fearsome Frog. A horrible grungy thing. Together they are not going to give in! With a little magic, and a lot of help from the children in the audience Rudi and the toys might get Santa unstuck.
