Plot summary

It's a story that never seems to stop thrilling children. The traditional tale of 'Snow White' has everything they could wish for - action, adventure, magical characters, suspense, tension, gruesome bits, soppy bits, lots of laughs and a 'happy ever after' ending. Perfect! This production keeps all those ingredients, and with a couple of 'Edgy' extras thrown in for good measure it's a great recipe for a thoroughly entertaining show.

Eight up-beat and catchy songs complement a clever and hilarious script, which brings to life all the well known, and a few not so well known characters. With some subtle modern twists, but not forsaking any of the classic storyline, this musical will engage every audience of parents, teachers and children.

Amongst others, we find ourselves in the presence of a wicked shopaholic queen, a Snow White whose vocation is to teach animals literacy and numeracy, seven vertically-challenged forest dwellers with various obsessions for food and cleanliness, evil boffin inventors, fawning cronies with a clever spin on the magic mirror…... and many more! There's plenty of scope for good old-fashioned character acting, with parts that children will relish getting stuck into and really hamming up!

With narrators keeping things moving, the well-paced script tells the whole tale from 'Once upon a time…' to wedding bells. Every song is adaptable so your whole cast can be involved in each singalong chorus, and with solos available anyone who wants to shine will get the opportunity.
