Family favourite Creams Gelato has teamed up with Dorchester Arts to support family theatre at the arts centre in spring 2018.

Famous for its ice cream, bubble pop waffles and flamboyant desserts, Creams will be supporting four entertaining productions in February, March and April.

"We are delighted that our relationship with Creams is to continue following its support for our outdoor performances last summer," said Jacky Thorne, development manager at Dorchester Arts.

‘‘Family theatre is so important at us here at Dorchester Arts, and with Creams’ support we are able to bring four quality shows that will appeal to children of all ages."

The four shows include The Saga of Noggin the Nog, I Believe in Unicorns, A Heart at Sea and Jay Foreman’s Disgusting Songs for Revolting Children – a real mixture of entertainment.

Osgur Kanal of Creams Dorchester said: "It is important to Creams to support the local community. Like Dorchester Arts, Creams offers something for people of all ages. We have a brand new menu for 2018 that includes not just ice cream for children but coffee and delicious treats for adults as well. So we are delighted to be involved."

The family season kicks off on Sunday, February 11 with The Sagas of Noggin the Nog at Dorchester Corn Exchange - and there may well be some Creams ‘waffley’ treats available.
