Make Christmas Magical in London with The Snowman
Iconic Christmas show The Snowman returns to Peacock Theatre for its 28th anniversary, from 22nd November – 4th January.
Based on the much-loved picture book by Raymond Briggs and the animated film directed by Dianne Jackson, this is the Birmingham Rep’s magical stage adaptation of the story, a London festive favourite that continues to enchant audiences of all ages and is a perfect introduction for young children to dance.
Featuring colourful sets, extravagant costumes and beautiful dancing, the story follows the adventures of a young boy when his snowman comes to life on Christmas Eve. They fly to the North Pole where they meet a dazzling array of characters, including dancing penguins, a snow princess, Jack Frost and even Father Christmas himself.
The Snowman is directed by Bill Alexander with music and lyrics by Howard Blake, including masterpiece Walking in the Air, spectacular design by Ruari Murchison, magical lighting by Tim Mitchell, and amazing choreography by Robert North, all of which is accompanied by a live orchestra.
