Delighting audiences for 24 years, this magical stage adaption of Raymond Briggs’ much-loved book and film, has transported a generation of children and their families into the wintery wonderland of a boy and a snowman that comes to life.
The stage adaptation returns this year to the Peacock Theatre, London.
We are looking for:
THE BOY
- This is a leading role (though non-speaking) for a boy aged 9 – 11 years, maximum height 4ft 6in, normal build. Must be a good actor and musical with good movement ability, and able to pick up steps easily. This is quite a demanding role so will suit someone who already has some experience of stage performing, and is likely to be tiring, so good stamina is vital. Must not be afraid of heights as flying through the air is required!
- 3 boys will share the role in London. ALL CHILDREN MUST LIVE WITHIN EASY TRAVELLING DISTANCE OF CENTRAL LONDON – no more than an hour, door to door.
We positively encourage applications from artistes of all ethnicities and heritages. We are particularly keen to receive suggestions from boys who are of South Asian or black African/Caribbean heritages
