Once Upon A Snowstorm

A gentle winter tale for young audiences aged 5-8 and their families.

Based on the beautiful illustration story book by Richard Johnson, it tells the story of a father and son who live an isolated life in the woods. When one day a howling snowstorm separates them, the boy falls asleep in the shelter of the trees. When he awakes, he is surrounded by some inquisitive woodland creatures – are they friends or are they foe?

Join Once Upon a Snowstorm author Richard Johnson for a draw-along and book signing directly before and after the two performances on Saturday 17 December at 2.45pm and 3.45pm. Richard will introduce children and their grown-ups to the making of the book and lead a draw-along where everyone can draw their own bear. Please note this event is for ticket holders for each performance only.

Thu 15 Dec at 6PM is a relaxed performance.

Once Upon A Snowstorm is part of the Traverse's £1 Ticket Project.
