About The Snow Queen
A magical new production of Dundee Rep Theatre’s 2018 Christmas hit The Snow Queen returns this festive season - brought to life once again by Noisemaker, the award-winning writing duo Claire McKenzie and Scott Gilmour (Oor Wullie, Ceilidh, Scots), and directed by Emily Oulton.
When Gerda’s best friend Kai goes missing in the snow, she must face her fears and embark on an epic quest to find him. With the help of an unlikely band of companions - a knight, a crow and a bandit - Gerda travels North to confront the Snow Queen and rescue her friend. But there are secrets in the snow and rumours aren’t always the truth…
With an epic original score, spellbinding storytelling, and a pinch of Christmas magic, it's a snow-stopping musical adventure for the whole family!
