The end of the line!
Hopefully Christmas and it's spirit arrived for all who visited the ancient woodland over the last 5 days. ✨🎄✨
It's all over until next year. Thank you to the ever amazing Wizelves: Charley, Sammi, Josh, Martin, Katie, Daisy & Charlie, Manash, @mitchthommoo and @rwu_art
To The Baron for bringing AV from Surrey 🙌
To @yorkshire_pizzaco for holding the car park to ransom with some of the world's finest take and bake pizza.
To @stodfolddeanclough for supporting us with the most beautiful Cinderella shortbread biscuits, that sold out before the ball! (But consumed after the ball was over✋)
To @ikptheatre for their unique, professionally executed, wonderfully energetic and engaging performance of Cinderella
(14 times in 5 days 🤯) AMAZING!!
And to you....our loyal and incredible friends and supporters. Without your help and dedication, along with your big smiles and massive thermal suits this would not be possible.
We dreamed of panto in the forest and this week it came true.💗
Have a safe and peaceful Christmas.
Thank you
Paul & Ash
The wonderful @ikptheatre
Just two days left! We will miss these lovelies........but they'll be back in summer with Beauty and the Beast 🤗✨💚
Wizelves need a break too you know!

Right folks. Here's some more info about Cinderella.
You've probably heard the news by now. No food or drink can be consumed on the premises (other than sweets and snacks)
But...... Our brilliant and talented friends Ben and Sarah
@yorkshire_pizzaco have already bought numerous kilos of cheese and hand proved hundreds of homemade pizza doughs. Arggghh I hear you shout
Let's support our hospitality industry and get take out on the way back to the car!
Not prepared to give in
@yorkshire_pizzaco are doing a 'take and bake' option or a 'take and make' kit.
These pizzas are the best we've tasted and I know those of you who have sampled the delights would agree.
We love you Ben and Sarah but we love your pizza just as much ✨🙌✨😂
Who's up for this folks????
We need to see your support
Ok folks, we have just received confirmation that Leeds will remain in tier 3 until Christmas.
This is not the news we were hoping for but the good news is, Cinderella will still go to the ball ✨💚✨
We are forced to make a few changes to meet Government guidelines. We have spoken to Environmental Health Leeds and local leaders, who have been brilliant and given us the necessary information.
Unfortunately we are unable to serve food or drinks from our premises. We are gutted for @yorkshire_pizzaco and @stodfolddeanclough Who have both been busy prepping for the event.
We will miss their beautiful food and smiling faces.
The guidance allows you guys to bring snacks in line with what you would usually take to a theatre for example crisps, sweets and soft drinks. Please be mindful of this, no hampers or picnics as this could incur fines for This Green Moon.
We are super excited and we are planning something lovely to try and make up for the changes.
As always This Green Moon relies on the wonderful people who support us and champion our events. Thank you so much for all your support and kind words.
We love you guys.
