Jump aboard and join Jem on her epic quest to discover the greatest treasure of all.
Great adventures begin with a map - and this mysterious map promises courage, quests and secrets. Jemimah (Jem) Hawkins sets sail in search of treasure, but when she is drawn into a world of greed, deceit and pirates, she begins to question what she is truly looking for.
As storms close in and trust is tested, Jem must decide between gold and glory or the people around her. This imaginative retelling of Treasure Island is packed with original music, humour and heart. Jump aboard and join Jem on her epic quest to discover the greatest treasure of all.

Join us for a sparkling reimagining of the classic fairytale, with talking mice, wicked plots, awkward heroes and one hopeful heroine.
You are cordially invited to the Royal Christmas Ball! The most extravagant event of the century is here at last, and the whole kingdom is invited – from the richest reveller to the humblest servant.
In a kingdom decked with holly and hope, Ella lives a quiet life of chores, often cleaning out the cinders from the fire. But when the invitation to the grandest event of the year arrives, Ella's step-mother won't let her go to the Ball and her dreams seem further away than ever – until a little Christmas magic shows up in her hour of need. But will the magic last? Will she get back home in time? What happens when the magic runs out?
“It was a pleasure to welcome the Saltmine team back…..the message is positive throughout and the Christian message explained clearly and succinctly, the audience loved joining in, especially the children. We made good connections with families who have a tentative or fringe connection with the church which is brilliant as part of our ongoing outreach”- Booker of Cinderella, December 2025

Join Jack as he adventures through this exciting retelling of a classic fairytale, reminds us of where true strength is found to overcome our fears.
This story starts, like all others do, with 'Once upon a time'. Somewhere out in the great wide world, a world that has memories of fairytales, there is a town. This town has hopes and dreams, worries and fears and a boy called Jack. We join him hustling and bustling through the day to day, until...
Fee-fi-fo-fum!
...Giants. Giants are coming. And with that, those fairytales become a lot more real. Rumours start circulating. Panic starts spreading. Can Jack and his friends overcome their fears in time? Will they defeat the Giant and save the day?
Come and clamber up the beanstalk with Jack this Christmas. Saltmine Theatre Company's reimagining of this classic story reminds us that we never have to face our fears alone - there is always someone bigger who has already overcome.
"It was performed brilliantly, had a brilliant encouraging message, and closing talk was short and perfect for the occasion. We had great feedback from those that came that it had been enjoyed very much. There were a good number of people we didn't know so it worked well as an outreach in our community."New Life Church Congleton

The whole world is about to change…but first the forest of Greenwood is getting very crowded indeed. Confusion reigns, identities mistaken and loyalties betrayed; will things ever get sorted out?
Come and see the story of the first Christmas as you’ve never seen it before. A charming, funny and enchanting re-telling of the Nativity story, jam-packed with beautiful music, audience participation, and bags full of family fun.
Too crowded? Is there room left for anything more? Join Saltmine Theatre Company this Christmas to discover how there is a place for everyone in this story.
“Your clever plot, humour, wonderful acting and clear gospel message made the performance sparkle – it was the highlight of my Christmas.”- Christ Church, Coventry
