SNOWFLAKE by Mike Bartlett

10 Dec 2019 – 25 Jan 2020, Kiln Theatre
(Previously 5-22 Dec, Old Fire Station Oxford)

‘Because Christmas. Well… That’s when they say people come home.’

Andy’s 43. He loves nostalgic TV and pints down the pub. His daughter Maya is 21. She left home three years ago and hasn’t spoken to him since. This Christmas, Andy knows she’s coming back – Maya knows she’s not.

Snowflake is an epic story about generational conflict, fathers and daughters, and whether we’re living in the best or worst of times...

A critically-acclaimed festive hit by Olivier Award-winning and BAFTA-nominated Mike Bartlett (King Charles III, Doctor Foster), directed by Olivier Award-winner Clare Lizzimore (Bull, Young Vic). Starring Elliot Levey, Ellen Robertson and Amber James (London) / Racheal Ofori (Oxford).
