“The perfect wintry afternoon entertainment for kids at homeschool”
Gerda and Kai are best friends – they share everything together – sweets, jokes, games and stories – especially ones about the mysterious 'Lady in the Sky' who lives in a faraway palace made of ice. And some of the stories are silly, and some are a bit spooky, but they are only stories. Aren’t they? When Kai disappears after seeing a strange shape above the clouds, Gerda knows it’s all real. The Snow Queen has got her best mate and only she can rescue him… by travelling to a world of weirdness and wonderment known as the Other Scarborough before he freezes forever. With the help of a grumpy reindeer, a Goth raven, a bunch of talking flowers, some unwise wisewomen (and the audience!), she might just make it – but what does the Snow Queen have in store for her once she does? Based on the novel by Hans Christian Andersen, adapted by Nick Lane, and directed by Paul Robinson, The Snow Queen is performed by Polly Lister.
