The creative team behind The Elves and the Shoemaker: Save Christmas and Jack Frost’s Christmas Wish return this December with Jingle All The Way, a brand-new festive adventure for all the family.
Audiences will meet reindeer siblings Rex and Rosie as they begin their journey at East Riding Reindeer Academy, home to some of the country’s finest athletes. While Rosie quickly finds her place, Rex struggles to fit in, until a competition to join Santa’s sleigh squad offers a chance to change everything!
Meet the cast
Taking on the starring roles of Rex and Rosie are Emilio Encinoso-Gil and Hannah Christina.
Emilio is a part-Spanish actor from Hull who trained at The Academy of Live and Recorded Arts (ALRA North). His numerous theatre credits include Do I Love You? (John Godber Company), On Your Marks (Dramatic Theatre CIC), and Peter Pan (Tony Peers Ltd). His screen work includes Right Here in Hull, The Memory Project (Smashing Mirrors Theatre), and Scones & Skates (Hull Truck Theatre), and he has also contributed voiceover work for Storyboard Media, Stage Door Theatre, and Middle Child.

She recently appeared in her graduate production of Caryl Churchill’s Top Girls, portraying ‘Angie’ and ‘Dull Gret’.
