What is the Christmas show The Snowman about?
When a young boy looks out of his window on Christmas Eve, he is surprised to see that the snowman he built has come alive! As his new frosty friend beckons him on an adventure, the pair soar up, up, up into the night sky. Join them as they meet Father Christmas, dancing penguins, woodland creatures and even dancing pineapples. But can they escape Jack Frost and get back home in time for Christmas morning?
Adapted from Raymond Briggs’ beloved children’s story and Dianne Jackson’s celebrated animated film, The Snowman is a timeless tale that is truly breathtaking on stage. Its gorgeous designs and costumes combine with music from a live orchestra, who perform the famous Aled Jones number “Walking in the Air”- to create a dance show that is accessible for all ages.
The Snowman On Stage - 28 Years of Magic
This festive delight premiered at Birmingham Repertory Theatre in 1993 and has become a London Christmas theatre tradition for generations. Now in its 28th year in London, it is still attracting audiences who are excited to experience the magic and childlike wonder of this heartwarming production. For many children, it is their very first West End show and one that has sparked a love of theatre in them. The creative team includes Olivier Award-winning director Bill Alexander (Blythe Spirit, Twelfth Night), designer Ruari Murchison (The Lion The Witch and The Wardrobe, Alice), lighting designer Tim Mitchell (Singing in the Rain, We Will Rock You) and choreographer Robert North (Death And The Maiden, Carmen). A live orchestra accompanies the action on stage, as James and his new friend take flight to far-off fantasy lands.
