Raymond Brigg's heartwarming holiday classic films have resonated with audiences for decades for their moving music, childhood magic and story telling. 
In a special double-bill for our holiday WSO Great-Life Kids Concert, we present The Snowman & The Bear

The Snowman tells of a little boy who wakes up to find that everything outside has turned show-white. James rushes out to build a snowman who comes to life and takes him on an amazing journey. 
Features the Howard Blake hit song Walking in the Air sung by soprano Sarah Luby.

The Bear tells the tale of a young girl who imagines what it would be like to have a polar bear as a pet. The girl and her bear embark on a magical journey. With an equally beautiful hit song in Somewhere A Star Shines For Everyone.
