Whiter Than Snow - 2007 Tour

by Mike Kenny
with Birmingham Rep Theatre
16 February - 31 March 2007


Meet Frieda and the Frantz family, the world-famous travelling performers of the best Snow White story you’ll ever see. But there's a problem, Snow White's done a bunk with the Prince!

Just when it looks like the final curtain’s about to fall, the perfect leading lady turns up hiding amongst the mothballs. The show will go on – however, perfection is not always what it seems….

This witty, insightful re-telling of the Snow White story, by award-winning playwright Mike Kenny, toured the UK in Spring 2007. Audiences were taken on a journey through dangerous and shifting landscapes, dared to go beyond the fairytale.

The show was suitable for 7 – 13 year olds and their families and featured a performing Sign Language Interpreter as part of the action.
