The Snowman
- Live Orchestral Performance

Make this a Christmas to remember with a magical live screening and live orchestral performance of Raymond Briggs’ classic story The Snowman. A perfect event for all the family! Alongside the iconic animated film, the concert will include fun and festive music; this is truly an event not to be missed!

Since its release in 1982, The Snowman has become a much-loved Christmas classic. Its story of a Snowman who takes a boy on a magical flight to meet Santa Claus, is charming and poignant, and is told without dialogue – through animation and music alone.

The film is based on a children’s book by Raymond Briggs, with the soft and warmly atmospheric animation style derived from the charm of his illustrations. The score for The Snowman was composed by Howard Blake, and during his long career it has become his most famous work, particularly his song for child soprano, Walking In The Air.

*Doors will open from 1.30pm for some pre-event Snowman themed activities!

Hot beverages and cakes provided by Cool Beans Coffee Co. will be on sale outside from 1.30pm. Warm yourself up with a pre-show hot drink!
