Beneath the Snow

  • 2 - 12 December

Event Information

Tickets: £12.50

Running Time: 35 minutes plus 10 minute stay and play 

Two figures dressed all in white, right down to their cuddly-toy-slippers, walk across a white carpet of pieces of tissue paper. We can almost hear the sound of the snow crunching underfoot. When they decide to toss one, then two, then a handful of pieces of paper up into the air, the papers turn into birds ; a long piece turns into a snake, a dragon; when they wave a big piece under a blue light, it evokes the ocean, and sea creatures disappear into the depths... 

Beneath the Snow is an exciting, playful and enchanting adventure with beautiful music and lighting. In this immersive show, two figures dressed in white walk on a white carpet made of lots of tissue paper. You can hear the sound of the wind and the snow crunching under their feet. They playfully awaken what lay dormant, opening the doors to the imagination.

You will discover creatures created from the snow, a flying fish, a dragon perhaps, as well as encountering an angry sea and dancing moons, and then little by little, the paper takes flight towards the audience and invites you to play too!

Audiences will sit on the stage in close proximity to the actors and bed of tissue paper so they can fully experience the magic of this show.
