Enchanted Forest Fairy Tour:

A great day out for all ages, our staff lead the children on a fairy adventure!  Includes fairy face paint and dress up, a guided walk to the fairy forest, stories of the fairy folk and wishing tree tags and fairy dust for all students, fairy game, and paint your own fairy door to bring home.   Each child receives a Nature Journal to record what they spot along the way.

You are lost in the forest around Slieve Aughty. How are you going to survive? Depending on the size of the group and time allowed, activities include starting a fire, basic tools, foraging and cooking wild plants, advanced shelters, purifying water, and tracking wildlife. The challenge of surviving outside of our comfort zone not only gives us the skills to live in the elements, it increases our ability to adapt to new challenges, builds confidence and self-sufficiency, encourages teamwork, and prepares us to face unforeseen problems in the world.

Teambuilding on Foot/Horseback:

Looking to bring a group of students together and build community? Our teambuilding program focuses on cooperation, communication and trust. Activities vary depending on the age and experience of the group and can include games, low ropes elements, and/or games on horseback!

Include a few principles in your school tour or earn a Leave No Trace certificate for each student by making it the focus.

Orienteering (4th class and above):

Never get lost again! We teach the basic skills of map reading and compass use and students put those skills to the test with a team treasure hunt. For an additional challenge, find the hidden treasure on horseback!

*UPDATED 2023 DETAILS COMING SOON*

Ireland’s first-ever Santa Van launched five years ago and put an end to those long frustrating lines to see Santa in shopping centers. It’s a much better way to see Santa for the children than standing in a queue for two hours hence our slogan SKIP THE QUEUE AND GET SANTA TO COME TO YOU.

The Santa Van arrives festively decorated inside and out and aims to cater to everyone from creches, primary schools, youth clubs, street parties, and home visits subject to minimum numbers.

When the children get to see Santa each child is presented with a party bag with two toys and an official North Pole Certificate confirming they are on Santa’s good list. The taking of photos is also encouraged to remember The Santa Van experence

Parents are under a lot of stress with the run-up to Christmas so let The Santa Van remove all the pressure of organizing a Santa visit at the busiest time of the year. We have over two hundred five-star reviews on our Facebook & Instagram pages.

The Helix Panto Hansel and Gretel

comment

The Helix Christmas Panto is back with Hansel and Gretel

Tickets are on sale now!

 

The Helix and TheatreworX are delighted to announce that tickets are NOW on sale for its 2022/23 panto Hansel & Gretel. All of the Helix panto favourites are back, including Buddy and Laurel played by Colin Hughes and Adam Mannion. Tickets are priced at €27.50 and are available now from www.thehelix.ie. Continuing with tradition a special sensory friendly performance will take place on 20th December at 6pm.

The cast of this years’ Panto is bigger than ever before and includes Ireland’s premier tenor Paul Byrom, the multi-talented Orla Jennings and AIMS award winner and funny man Chris Corroon as Dame Lola.

Creative director of TheatreworX Productions and producer of The Helix Panto Claire Tighe said:

“We are thrilled to be back – bigger and better whilst ensuring the show must go on. Having learned valuable lessons over the past few years, Hansel & Gretel will be cover ready at all times with a talented understudy cast supporting our principal line up in a production with more laughs, more stunts and more costume changes than ever before.”

General Manager of The Helix Michael Brady said at today’s announcement:

“The Helix opened twenty years ago in October 2002 and for 15 of those years the Tighe family have been delighting families and people of all ages with their vision of panto. The past few years have been a real challenge for all of us in the entertainment sector, but our panto will I am sure bring a bit of normalcy back to people’s lives and put a smile on the faces of everyone -young and old”.”

The very successful online panto for schools nationwide and indeed internationally (schools signed up from as far away as Australia last year!) will take place again with an early bird fee of €395 till October 31st. This allows schools to access the panto to students during school time from 14th to 21st December. Schools have found the online panto an excellent way of keeping costs down, whilst at the same time sharing the magic of panto with their young students.

 

The Helix panto is back.

Oh no it’s not

Oh YES it is!!!

Review….

We were kindly invited along to the opening night of Hansel & Gretel and we loved it…..

There are gags a plenty at this years TheatreworX Panto, Hansel & Gretel, now showing at the Helix Theatre in Dublin.

Lots of familiar faces thread the boards again including the wonderful Paul Byrom as Donny, Colin Hughes as the ever popular Buddy, Aidan Mannion as the comical Laurel and lots more. The skits are just great and there’s so much packed in there with lots of references to everyday gripes and groans.

This years Panto is a play on the Hansel and Gretel story, which sees the shows two main characters Brian Dalton and Caoimhe Garvey, in search of the ‘moon stone’. They are aided on their quest by a wonderful cast or characters including the forest Humicorns, played by Orla Jennings and Jordan Bass, Merryville villagers and a funny and scary (not scary) forest witch from Eastwall in Dublin 😊

No write up would be complete without a shout out to Chris Corroon who plays the larger than life Lola, the hilarious panto mammy! Also look out for Bradley Byrom, the furry four legged son of Paul Byrom who makes a special guest appearance. The Theatreworx cast really do put on a great show, including a wonderful troupe of talented child and adult dancers. Super performances all round by a very talented cast.

There’s great fun for the kids from Buddy and Laurel and lots of familiar tunes to keep the audience toe tapping along. Will Hansel and Gretel get to the moon stone in time, or will the dastardly Donny get there first and ruin their plans? The stage is truly set for a highly entertaining seasonal Panto that all members of the family are sure to enjoy! Visit www.helix.ie to book your tickets
