A favourite of diddi dance Founder Anne-Marie Martin, we want to recommend anyone in or around London over the holiday season to go and see The Snowman.
The Snowman
Peacock Theatre
26 Nov – 4 Jan
When a young boy’s snowman magically comes to life, the two set off on a starry-skied adventure to the North Pole, where they meet dancing penguins, reindeer and naturally, Father Christmas. Watch spellbound as the Snowman flies through the night sky above you, before escaping the clutches of Jack Frost to return home for Christmas morning.
Now in its 17th hit year, this heart-warming stage show based on Raymond Briggs’ much-loved book, is brought to life in a magical mix of music, dance, enchanting design and spectacular sets. Featuring Howard Blake’s beautiful ‘Walking In The Air’, performed by a live orchestra, The Snowman is an “essential part of London’s Christmas calendar” (Time Out).
Suitable for all children aged two and upwards, The Snowman is a captivating show full of dance, stagecraft, live music, storytelling, spectacle and magic.
“Sheer theatrical magic. Go see The Snowman and melt” – The Times
