With snow topping her bucket list\, audiences are swept into her adventure of wonder\, hope\, and discovery. \nDirected by Margaret Omoniyi\, the performance showcases young talent from the former Community360 Children’s Book Club\, initiated by Godwin Daudu (AfiUK)\, with Sade Fadipe as resident author and Dee Lana as Storyteller. Adding festive rhythm and flair is Julia Obasa\, founder of Afromoves\, whose multi-genre dance collaborations bring colour\, energy\, and cultural vibrancy to the stage. \nThis uplifting community production is supported by Rebreate CIC\, an organisation set up to support parents with children who have learning and developmental challenges\, further reinforcing the show’s themes of inclusivity\, resilience\, and togetherness. \nAudiences can expect a magical afternoon in one of Colchester’s most cherished venues\, celebrated for its intimate atmosphere and historic charm. A perfect Christmas outing for families\, community groups\, and anyone looking to experience the magic of storytelling\, music\, and dance this festive season. \n“Each year\, I am humbled by the energy and commitment that make Snowy Joy & The Toysavers possible. Every performance is a testament to inclusivity and the belief that the arts should be accessible to all (a perception shared with\, and upheld by our incredible director: Margaret’s Music Ltd ) no matter their background\, ability\, or circumstance. That’s what makes this show so special.” Sade Fadipe
