Oh no it isn't, oh yes it is...it's pantomime season in London!

If you are still trying to get into the spirit of Christmas then the traditional British pantomime is always a fun way for the entire family to get some of that festive cheer. There is a whole host of traditional pantomimes running over the Christmas period including some classic children’s stories, and one that is always well received is ‘The Snowman’. Adapted from the 1978 book by Raymond Briggs, it has turned into a timeless Christmas story well loved by children and adults alike. The stage show was first produced in 1993 but since 1997 the show has been traditionally shown at the Peacock Theatre in the West End. Just as in the 1982 cartoon the play depicts the story using action and music only, without dialogue, and look out for new characters including the Ice Princess and Jack Frost. The Snowman will be showing from the 3rd of December to the 11th of January so there will be plenty of opportunities to catch this time honoured Christmas story.
