Arthur’s Christmas Tale
Available to stream now on…..
Clubhouse was commissioned to create a Stop Motion/Live Action hybrid Christmas film based on a poem by Angela Proctor. ‘Arthur's Christmas Tale’ is a heart warming stop motion animation directed by Eleanor Stewart. It tells the story of a brave little dog who melts Jack Frost’s heart. Angela Proctor is an author from the East End of Glasgow, most famous for her series of stories for children, Thumble Tumble. She worked with Clubhouse to turned one of her poems into an animated film to raise vital funds for Shelter Scotland. The animation, which also stars 60 Glasgow school children, was shown in the trailers of 21 independent cinemas across Scotland throughout December 2023 to help raise funds for charity.
