Santa s Virtual Grotto sold out within 48 hours of its announcement. Through Zoom, families, and most importantly their children, had the opportunity to talk direct to Santa, to pass on their Christmas messages ahead of the big day on December 25. Santa, in his grotto, was joined by his two cheeky elves, Tinsel and Jingles, who made sure that Santa was looked after with mince pies, milk and carrots for the reindeer. The idea of the virtual grotto came about via the Torch Theatre s Artistic Director, Peter Doran, who wrote a letter to Santa to ask if he would visit the Torch Theatre and spread some goodwill to the Pembrokeshire Community.
