Back by popular demand: the Enchanted Cinema presents The Snowman, gliding into our area for another winter!
This fun and interactive event starts with a vocal warm-up, preparing the “Aled” within for the unforgettable Walking in the Air sequence before we prepare scenes from the 1982 animated film using instruments from around the world – tree-frog guiros and butterfly charango from South America, Greek lyre harp, African thumb piano, Chinese Wind Gong, South Asian Gopichand and other ingenious foley sound FX.
The 30-min workshop is followed by a screening of Dianne Jackson’s magical animated film based on Raymond Briggs’ book ‘The Snowman’ where you as an audience will form part of the soundtrack.
A final highlight for families is to try out instruments after the show, or draw a postcard for our collection inspired by the animation. The show is ideal for children aged 4+ and their grown-ups who team up to become the magical orchestra. To keep the magic alive, please keep all phones in bags until the end.
The Enchanted Cinema is supported using public funding by the National Lottery through Arts Council.
