Mike Bartlett’s SNOWFLAKE is a laugh-out-loud, lump-in-your-throat festive showdown about generational differences and why it’s never just “pass the gravy.”
All Andy wants for Christmas is an X-Files box set, some bloody common sense in politics, and maybe — just maybe — a second chance with his daughter, Maya. The holidays are the perfect time for a family reunion… right? Or will she be too busy planning to dismantle the patriarchy before pudding?
Expect awkward silences, uncomfortable truths, and more tension than a family game of Monopoly. Mike Bartlett’s SNOWFLAKE is a laugh-out-loud, lump-in-your-throat festive showdown about generational differences and why it’s never just “pass the gravy.”
★★★★ "A masterfully written generational clash lies at the heart of this timely story rich in insight, poignancy and optimism" The Guardian
★★★★ "A tender portrait of family conflict... perfect for your Christmas dinner prep" Time Out
