December 9th 2012 - Tina Pandher outside Bookends



It was a chilly and frosty evening last night, perfect weather for a performance that echoed Christmas Eve itself. Tina Pandher presented Santa's Lonely Planet Guide reading a story of sorts following Santa around the globe.

Tina Pandher wonders... if you've ever wondered how Santa copes with keeping true to the traditions of Christmas which are celebrated across the globe?  Do children in Asia lay out mince pies for a gliding red figure?  Or are mango trees and magic almonds another way of keeping the Christmas spirit alive.  Let us cross steady rivers, mammoth mountains and deep hill valleys to witness Christmas through the eyes of Santa Claus!!

We are always keen where possible to pair a venue with a performance that connect to each other. So Tina’s wonderful literary treat was an obvious choice for Bookends, Wokingham’s independent bookshop.

There was a crowd of about 30 people lining the pavement each side of Bookends and on the other side of the road.

Bookends is an independent company trading in Wokingham for over 20 years. They have two shops almost opposite each other. On the 12th we will be across the road at Bookends Gift Shop.



PS When it does get to Christmas Eve don’t forget you can follow Father Christmas around the globe via NORAD here: http://www.noradsanta.org/en/

Tonights performance is at Kaanaanmaa on Denmark Street at 6:15pm.
