The Snowman, the classic seasonal tale of a young boy swept away on a magical adventure by his snowman, spreads its annual Christmas cheer.

There’s enchantment in the air on Christmas Eve, and when a young boy’s snowman comes alive the frosty friends set off on a night-time quest for adventure. Their snowy travels through Christmas night find them meeting dancing penguins, reindeer and naturally, Father Christmas.

Featuring Howard Blake’s beautiful Walking In The Air, performed by a live orchestra, choreographed by Robert North and directed by Bill Alexander, The Snowman is a perennially perfect Christmas treat for all the family.

The festive stage show, based on Raymond Briggs’ picture book The Snowman and the subsequent much-loved film, has become a modern classic. With its wonderful mix of storytelling, spectacle and magic, The Snowman is back for a record-breaking 14th year.
