The Snowman with Live Orchestra

One winter's day, a boy builds a snowman who comes to life at the stroke of midnight... "I remember that winter because it had brought the heaviest snow I had ever seen. Snow had fallen steadily all night long and in the morning I woke in a room filled with light and silence, the whole world seemed to be held in a dream-like stillness. It was a magical day... and it was on that day I made the Snowman." This Christmas, join us on an immersive magical journey and experience the heartwarming tale of The Snowman, screened with live orchestra. A BAFTA winning classic, featuring the song Walking in the Air, The Snowman is a cinematic gem of Raymond Briggs' story with music by Howard Blake, performed live for you by Orpheus Sinfonia as we bring the magic to life this Christmas. Preceded by a festive interactive introduction. With more Christmas tunes than you’ll be able to keep count of, you’ll discover the orchestra and The Snowman as you’ve never seen before. All followed by an opportunity to meet a certain ‘special, snowy, guest’! A perfect festive outing for the whole family, friends and schools, that will charm the entire audience.
