Raring2go! WHATS ON & WHERE TO GO 18 raring2go.co.uk 19 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. Expect 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 The Snowsmith as it’s a truly original tale that combines everything we love about theatre – imagination, music, and a shared sense of joy. We cannot wait to share it with families this Christmas.” Special events add even more sparkle. On selected evening performances, families can enjoy cosy Pyjama Nights - wear your favourite pyjamas, sip a hot chocolate from the café, and enjoy a truly festive evening. The Maltings is also offering a relaxed performance and a captioned performance. On selected weekends throughout December, children can also take part in Snowsmith-themed puppet workshops, making their own owl to take home (booking in advance required.
