One winter morning, Peter woke up and looked out the window.
Snow had fallen during the night. It covered everything as far as he could see.
Discover a world blanketed in wonder in this joyful dance adaptation of The Snowy Day, inspired by the award-winning picture book by Ezra Jack Keats. Join Peter as he crunches through the snowy streets of his New York neighbourhood, in this intimate icy adventure.
Brought to life by Polka Theatre and Can’t Sit Still, the award-nominated company behind Oh No, George!, The Snowy Day is specially designed for 1–5 year olds and their grown-ups, featuring one dancer, original music and an enchanting set. Join us this winter to experience the magic of fresh snowfall in Keats' classic, heartwarming tale.
Each performance will be followed by a 10-minute stay & play.
