Family favourite THE SNOWMAN returns to London's Peacock Theatre this Christmas, running 23 November-31 December. Book tickets here from 22!

Sadler's Wells has announced its Autumn / Winter 2016 Season.

The Snowman has been a widely recognised and fondly regarded book and film since its conception by Raymond Briggs in the late 1970's. It has had an annual Christmas TV slot since 1982 and the 26-minute film was even nominated for an Academy Award - not bad considering it derived from a children's picture book with no words! In 1986, the story was made into a stage show with Birmingham Rep producing the most notable version in 1993. It is here that I revisited the show thirty years after its stage debut.

Created by Birmingham Repertory Theatre 22 years ago, The Snowman has been delighting young and old alike for over two decades with its wonderful mix of storytelling, spectacle and magic. Now, it returns to Birmingham Repertory Theatre in the New Year following a succesful 18th festive year in London's West End.

The Autumn / Winter 2015 Season at Sadler's Wells launches tonight.
