The Gruffalo and the Snowman

Following the huge success of The Gruffalo and the The Gruffalo's Child at Bristol Beacon last Christmas, they make a welcome return this December. Rather like Peter and the Wolf, each character in the tale is represented by a different instrument of the orchestra – can you guess what the Gruffalo will be?

The much beloved film The Snowman will be shown on the big screen with a live symphony orchestra providing the soundtrack. sixteen year old Alice Mackenzie sings the aria made so famous by Aled Jones, Walking in the Air.

Programme

Donaldson/Mackenzie: The Gruffalo for narrator and orchestra
Donaldson/Mackenzie: The Gruffalo’s Child for narrator and orchestra
Blake: The Snowman, shown on the big screen with live orchestral accompaniment

Dates: December 22, 2025 - December 22, 2025
