‘The Snow Beast’ is a collaboration between critically acclaimed Scratchworks Theatre Company & award-winning writer Jack Dean. This family friendly theatre show (ages 6+) brings live science experiments to the stage as we follow a female scientist, Faina, who sets out on a quest to find the mystical Snow Beast.

In the snowy town of Seldomberg test tubes bubble, experiments explode and new inventions whirr for the Science Academy’s Final Exams. But Faina’s got a problem... her project has unexpectedly burst into flames!

Desperate to pass her Final Exams, Faina sets off on a perilous expedition to find the legendary Snow Beast. With help from her owl assistant Maude, they encounter extraordinary spectacles and mountainous obstacles as they battle through the wild, wintry wilderness in search of the truth.

Can you help Faina and Maude overcome the scientific puzzles along the way? Does The Snow Beast even exist?

The show is interactive allowing the children to get involved with the live science experiments in the production. It’s also packed full of inventive storytelling, puppetry and beautiful Scandi-inspired live music & songs by Lucie Treacher.

‘We’re committed to helping to inspire young minds in the world of science through our theatre work. To keep the fun going after seeing The Snow Beast, we’ve created an activity pack suitable for schools & at-home experimenting! Laura Doble, Co-Artistic Director
