A MAGICAL WINTER QUEST AWAITS AT FARNHAM MALTINGS Raring2go! WHAT’S ON & WHERE TO GO This Christmas, Farnham Maltings invites audiences into a world of wonder with The Snowsmith, by theatre company Half A String, running from 12th – 24th December. This enchanting tale promises to be a festive highlight for families of all ages. At the heart of the story is Eira, a fearless young inventor who dares to believe in legends of soft white snow. Determined to bring it back to her world, she sets out on a daring quest. Along the way, she faces a fearsome whale, ventures through an abandoned mine, encounters herds of mischievous goats, and makes friends in the most unlikely places. But the greatest question of all remains: will it snow in Thawmor this winter? The Snowsmith is brought to life through inventive design, mesmerising puppetry, and music that draws audiences straight into the adventure. Children and adults alike will be swept up in a story that celebrates courage, imagination, and the power of community. This year, the magic begins before you even step inside. The entrance to Farnham Maltings will be transformed into the forest and village of Thawmor, immersing audiences in the world of the story from the very first moment. Expect lantern-lit pathways, wintry details, and a festive atmosphere that makes arriving at the show part of the adventure itself. Farnham Maltings’ Executive Producer & Deputy CEO Katy Potter shared her excitement for the production: “This winter we are thrilled to be welcoming Half A String with their production of The Snowsmith. It’s a truly original tale that combines everything we love about theatre - imagination, music, and a shared sense of joy. Transforming the Maltings into the world of Thawmor will make this a unique and magical experience for our audiences, and we cannot wait to share it with families this Christmas.” Special events add even more sparkle. On selected evenings, families can enjoy cosy Pyjama Night performances—wear your favourite pyjamas, sip a hot chocolate from the café, and enjoy a truly festive evening. On selected weekends throughout December, children can also take part in Snowsmiththemed puppet workshops, making their very own owl to take home (booking in advance required). Perfect for audiences aged three and up, The Snowsmith is more than a show, it’s an invitation to step into a wintery legend and celebrate the season together. 12th – 24th December Tickets £14.50 – £20 at www.farnhammaltings.com/ the-snowsmith 19 Raring2go!
