Carrot Productions is the world’s leading performers of both Wallace and Gromit and The Snowman film with live orchestra and have been voted as one of the ‘Top Family Things to Do at Christmas’ by The Guardian, The Sunday Times and The Telegraph.
The Snowman, adapted from author and creator Raymond Briggs’ iconic children’s book, follows the adventures of a young boy and a truly remarkable Snowman. This big screen presentation will be accompanied by a live professional orchestra bringing the chart-topping music to life. This magical performance will be full of charm, humour and warmth and a perfect treat for the whole family.
With musicians drawn from the UK’s top orchestras including the BBC Philharmonic, Hallé, BBC Scottish and London Symphony Orchestra, families across the country will have the chance to enjoy a Christmas classic whilst in a stunning setting making the most of the beautiful music.
With the ethos of Carrot Productions being that orchestral music should be accessible and welcoming to everyone The Snowman will be a particularly special festive treat after the last year. All musicians in the orchestra are not only there because of their incredible musical skills but also for their fun, friendly nature; important when performing to a young audience who may have never seen or heard a live orchestra before.
And as if the excitement of the fantastic film and magical music aren’t enough there will even be a visit from The Snowman himself who cannot wait to welcome everyone back inside venues this Christmas.
Alongside The Snowman film, these magical performances will include a toe-tapping Christmas Medley, a fun musical tour of the orchestra and an additional animation – The Bear and the Piano (with narration recorded by Joanna Lumley), The Nutcracker Suite, or We’re Going on a Bear Hunt – ensuring perfect entertainment for the whole family.
