Live Shows? It’s what we do!
When it comes to live family entertainment, there’s nothing quite like the energy of a great show. The lights, the laughter, the music, and the larger-than-life characters all come together creating memories that stay with children (and their grown-ups!) for years to come.
It’s something we know quite a lot about. In fact, in our opinion, it’s absolutely what we do best.
For almost 30 years now, we’ve been producing high-quality, engaging live entertainment for families and young audiences across the UK, combining West End-level performance with creative storytelling and exceptional production values. From big brands to touring shows to resort entertainment, our highly skilled performers bring magical worlds to life on stage.
What makes our live shows so special?
It’s no secret that quite a lot of work goes into making unforgettable live family entertainment, from the tireless behind-the-scenes work through to the polished joy that you see on-stage. Within our MOF office team we have a combined experience of 100+ years in entertainment meaning that we bring every element in-house and you can rest assured that you are in safe hands.
Professional performers with real industry experience
Our casts are filled with professional singers, dancers, and actors who have trained and performed at the highest levels. In fact you may have even seen many of them on West End stages or in TV shows and films.
This wealth of experience shows! Whether they’re playing a beloved character from a children’s TV series or a brand-new creation fresh from our scripts, their talent and professionalism elevates every show.
We write, cast, direct, produce & tour
Many entertainment companies can offer you a part of the process, sometimes even a few. At MOF we can provide every single piece of the puzzle.
With our in-house teams we can:
- Develop original scripts
- Cast professional performers
- Direct and rehearse the full production
- Produce and manage logistics
- Tour nationally and internationally
We can even handle set build and props, giving brands and clients a seamless start-to-finish solution with absolute peace of mind.
MOF is trusted by the biggest names in Family Entertainment
When huge brands trust us with their reputation (and their IP), we take it extremely seriously. And let’s be honest, there must be a reason why they come back to us campaign after campaign, year after year.
We’re proud to have earned the trust of major entertainment brands, who rely on us to represent their characters, products and values on stage.
Over the years we’ve worked with high-profile partners including:

Holiday Resorts & Themed Entertainment
You may have already seen our performers bringing joy to a wide variety of stage across the UK, including holiday resorts such as Butlin’s, Haven, and Warners. We entertain thousands of families every year with:
- Stage shows

Whether it’s a pirate invasion on the Skyline stage or a quirky character popping up poolside, we help holiday parks & resorts deliver magical moments that guests truly remember and cherish.
Educational & Specialist Shows
Family entertainment doesn’t always have to be silly of course (though we do love silly!). Our team also develop informative, science-led and educational productions that tackle more serious topics using age-appropriate storytelling.
For example, with “The Science of Cancer” for CRUK we devised a short tourable production that discussed serious themes and scientific developments behind gene therapy, created to help people understand an incredibly complex subject in an engaging way.
We are experts with serious capability
When it comes to creating live entertainment, we believe that we strike a rare balance:
- Experienced: trusted to deliver for globally recognised brands
