Join Hylands Estate for a magical Christmas family show in the Grand Pavilion!

With songs, music, and projection, Michael Whitmore’s enchanting adaptation of Hans Christian Andersen’s The Snow Queen is both funny and poignant. Blending fantasy, fable, and the enduring power of love, this magical tale makes for a heartwarming Christmas classic.

Kay and his dear friend Gerda are devoted to one another. But when a splinter from a demon’s mirror lodges in Kay’s heart, he becomes cold and cruel. The Snow Queen soon whisks him away to her icy palace in the North Pole.

No one knows what has happened to him, but a heartbroken Gerda sets out on a long and perilous journey to find him. Can her love save Kay and melt his frozen heart?
