The stage version of Raymond Briggs’ much-loved book has been delighting children everywhere since its premiere at Birmingham Repertory Theatre in 1993.
Watch spellbound as The Snowman and James literally fly through the night sky above you before escaping the clutches of the evil Jack Frost, before partying with Father Christmas and snowy friends including those comical penguins!
Suitable for all children aged two and upwards, this is a captivating mix of dance, stagecraft and music from a live orchestra. It is the perfect introduction to dance and theatre for the very young or a Christmas family day out.
Running time approx 1hr 45mins
The show is now a regular Christmas fixture in London’s West End, playing to packed houses at the Peacock Theatre for the last ten years. There is also a touring version of the show that has visited Birmingham, Edinburgh, Salford, Haarlem and Tokyo in recent years.
