THEME ️
*********
There is no strict theme at our end of year events, you should feel free to tell whatever stories you would like! However if you would like a theme to prompt you, you are invited to tell stories on the theme of Snow. ❄️☃️
Stories of snow, fake snow, ski slopes and winter holidays. Stories about disastrous camping trips, mountain rescues and getting snowed in. Snowboarding, skiing, tobogganing. Snow days off school, snow ball fights and snow on Christmas day. Unseasonal weather, crisp white landscape and trips to the North Pole. Snow angels, moon dogs and blizzards. Polar bears, penguins and frozen lakes. Ice fishing, ice swimming and snow cones. Wind, fog, sleet and hail. Jumpers, ear muffs and mittens. Frostbite, chapped lips and cocaine. Snow that was welcome, and snow that was dangerous. Grit, salt, and feeling the car begin to skid on the icy road... Have you got a story about snow? Or Anything else? Then come tell us at our final show of the year on December 17th. ❤
