Slava’s Snowshow is back in the UK to celebrate its 30th anniversary, landing at the Harold Pinter Theatre for a strictly limited Christmas run. This isn’t your average holiday show—prepare for pure, snowy mayhem.
But what exactly is Slava’s Snowshow? Imagine a shark gliding through fog, a surprisingly emotional farewell to a coat hanger, and a snowstorm that practically sweeps you off your seat. This spellbinding spectacle brings laughter and wonder crashing together in a burst of clowning chaos.Reviving the lost art of clowning (with a twist), Slava’s Snowshow charms even those who’ve long abandoned circus tents.
The Harold Pinter Theatre, once called the Comedy Theatre, has been keeping London entertained since 1881. Tucked away on Panton Street, this iconic West End venue made its name during World War I with dazzling revues by C.B. Cochran and André Charlot. In 2011, it swapped its comedic title for something more dramatic—paying tribute to the legendary British playwright Harold Pinter, whose works have graced its stage many times. From comedy operas to avant-garde theatre, this historic spot has hosted it all, making its mark as a hub for bold and brilliant performances since the early 20th century.

I saw the show many years ago and remember it being awesome. I wanted my son to see it and we were both blown away and had such a good time! The only thing to say is that we sat in the very last row of the stalls, so the view wasn't amazing, especially as the balcony above makes for a very low ceiling. The cobwebs were fun, but stopped a few rows in front of us, which caused massive disappointment on my son's side. We managed to get better seats for the second half which was a huge improvement! So we got the full experience for the snowstorm and end-of-play party which was so much fun! Of you want to be part of the show rather than just observer you will need to grab a bit deeper into your pockets and get seats in the front half of the stalls! But very much recommended!!! The show itself it quite simple without much of a story line, but it is sooo cute and so extremely well executed with the props and lighting. Really a very special show!!! ☃️
Really beautiful! This is the second time we've seen this show, and we still think it's magnificent! Bravo et merci
