Snow White

Roll up, for a magical new musical version of a familiar tale – a mammoth production guaranteed to fill the festive period with heartwarming cheer.

An unbelievably huge cast of all ages, a stunning original score and with an upbeat message of how anyone can get to choose the ending of their own story – well, why would you go anywhere else?
