About this event

Fly away on a magical journey with The Snowman in this special screening at Middlesbrough Town Hall accompanied by a live soundtrack performed by pianist Alison Gill!

After the snow settles on a cold winter’s day, a little boy builds a Snowman. Later that night, under the glittering stars, the Snowman comes to life! Together they fly through the night sky on a breathtaking journey, until the sun comes up and it’s time to go home.

Based on the iconic tale by Raymond Briggs, the 1982 film is a beloved staple for families in the run-up to Christmas. Join us for an unforgettable experience as we show The Snowman film accompanied by live music. The lyrical and evocative soundtrack – featuring festive classics like ‘Walking in the Air’ – is sure to bring some Christmas magic to all.
