The New Adventures of Snow Mouse (2015, 2016, 2017)
About the show
Our wintery tale for the youngest theatre goers was originally created in 2015 as an early years performance installation with our co-producers the egg, Theatre Royal Bath. With the help of the show's designer-creator Edwina Bridgeman we transformed the very practical Roper Room, into a soft and snowy wonderland, perfect for tiny feet. Snow Mouse enchanted audiences, young and old alike and was remodeled for even younger children and babies for a sell out Christmas run at the egg, Theatre Royal Bath in 2016. The following year Snow mouse returned for two parallel Christmas tours during the winter of 2017-18 which included Christmas residencies at both The Barbican and Warwick Arts Centre.
Winter has arrived and the woods are covered in white. A boy hurries to put on his warm clothes so he can run outside and play in a sparkly new world.
Just when he is starting to feel a bit lonely he finds a sleeping mouse buried under the soft white flakes. Sliding, tumbling and laughing, they explore the snowy wonderland together, and keep each other safe and warm from the winter freeze.
Come into a magical forest full of play, puppetry and music and join the two new friends on their adventures.
