"In Search of Saint Nicholas" is a multimedia Christmas show taking place on December 20, 2026 at 2:00 PM at Auditorium Maximum UJ in Kraków. The spectacle is designed for the whole family, both children and adults.
The plot is based on the question of where Saint Nicholas has disappeared to—whether he vanished or was kidnapped. Young audience members receive glowing, magical wands and set out on a search mission with Elves. Along the way they meet various characters:
- a real Saint Nicholas from Lapland
- a Chinese sorcerer
- an Indian sorcerer
- a Chinese lion
- a blue elephant
- real penguins
The performance features interactive moments, games, and dances involving the children. Saint Nicholas is found and together with the children conjures a Christmas tree that runs onto the stage by itself. The creators emphasize that the spectacle uses modern technology, costumes, and elaborate scenography.
Practical information: the show lasts 60 minutes. The performance is recommended for viewers aged 3 to 10 years old.
