London Activities

After eleven years the stage version of Raymond Briggs’ much-loved book is still London’s favourite Christmas show!

When a young boy’s snowman comes to life on Christmas Eve, the two set off on a night-time quest for adventure. On their travels, they meet dancing penguins, reindeer and, or course, Father Christmas.

Watch spellbound as the Snowman literally flies through the night sky above you, before escaping the clutches of the evil Jack Frost to return home for Christmas morning.

Suitable for all children aged two and upwards, this is a captivating mix of dance, stagecraft and music. Featuring Howard Blake’s timeless score, including the ever-popular Walking in the Air played live by a full orchestra.

Critics' choice
