The Snowman

Plus Wallace & Gromit: The Wrong Trousers

This event has passed

An orchestra performs on stage in front of a projection of a cartoon snowman.

Make it a Christmas to remember with a very special performance featuring two of the UK’s best-loved and iconic animated films, The Snowman and Wallace & Gromit: The Wrong Trousers, with live accompaniment from an outstanding professional orchestra.

Presented by Carrot Productions – the world’s leading performers of The Snowman film with orchestra, currently celebrating their 10th anniversary – their award-winning show is brought to life in spectacular fashion by the UK’s finest musicians.

Alongside The Snowman film, a whistle-stop Christmas guide to the orchestra and a visit from the Snowman himself, join everyone’s favourite cheese-loving inventor, Wallace and his trusty companion, Gromit in Aardman’s multi award-winning film, The Wrong Trousers (including the best train chase sequence ever created).

After the performance, everyone is welcome to come down to meet the musicians, see their instruments and admire their amazing costumes too! This magical award-winning show is guaranteed to create cherished memories for the whole family.
