For the 19th year in a row, the captivating family show The Snowman comes to the London stage.

Based on the beloved children’s book by Raymond Briggs and the 1982 film directed by Dianne Jackson, The Snowman tells the unforgettable story of a young boy and a snowman he builds on a cold winter’s day. At the stroke of midnight the snowman comes to life and the two embark on a wonderful adventure together, meeting Father Christmas at the North Pole and narrowly escaping the grips of the dastardly Jack Frost. 

Featuring music and lyrics by Howard Blake performed by a live orchestra (including the iconic ‘Walking in the Air’), stunning choreography by Robert North and direction by Bill Alexander, the winter wonderland of The Snowman and its beautiful story of friendship has enchanted generations of children. An unmissable festive tradition, gather your family and loved ones together this holiday season to experience a truly magical show.

Playing from late November at the Peacock Theatre, the West End home of internationally-renowned dance venue Sadler’s Wells, book your tickets to The Snowman today.

    We all enjoyed the show! From a 1.5 yo toddler to his 7 yo sister to an adult like me!

    My daughter, my husband and I went to see the play. It was really enjoyable and first time I saw my daughter clapping and interacting so much with the atmosphere of the play. I have to admit that is a little bit long including the break but at the end we had a really good time!
