Programme A Lyric Theatre Production 25 Nov- 31 Dec 2022

Welcome to the Lyric Theatre and our production of The Snow Queen We are delighted that you have chosen to see your Christmas show at the Lyric and are grateful for your support of this theatre. This year has been a wonderful one for the theatre. We premiered four new plays that were diverse, entertaining, and adventurous; we embarked on an award-winning tour with the Abbey theatre on Brian Friel’s seminal Translations, and we played to capacity houses with Marie Jones’ Stones in his Pockets produced by Barn Theatre and had many excellent touring productions through our theatre.

We are thrilled to finish the year with yet another fantastic piece of new work by the incredibly talented Paul Boyd this time on the hugely atmospheric and mysterious, The Snow Queen. Inspired by Hans Christian Anderson’s tale just as the Disney movie Frozen was.

Paul has an excellent team supporting him including Deborah Maguire as Choreographer, Oli Rew as Musical Director, Stuart Marshall as Set Designer, Eoin Robinson as Video Designer, Gillian Lenox as Costume Designer and Mary Tumelty on Lights, and an amazing

company of actors who also provide so much of the music. It’s a truly brilliant company.

I welcome you to sit back and be transported to this world filled with magic and wonder that our Company has sewn together with Blomsterby roses and adventure.

On behalf of the team here and our board may I wish you all a peaceful and Merry Christmas and a healthy and Happy New Year!

THE SNOW QUEEN / 25 NOVEMBER - 31 DECEMBER / LYRIC THEATRE PRODUCTION

DIRECTOR’S NOTE

This year I am marking 30 years of creating original musical theatre and it is fitting that I find myself back home in Belfast where my first ever musical was produced in 1992, and where so many of my best-loved shows have started life.

When the Lyric Theatre asked me earlier this year to create a new musical of The Snow Queen I accepted the challenge - and a challenge it was. Not only is Hans Christian Andersen’s wintery fairytale a notoriously difficult story to adapt for the stage, but I was also very aware that this new musical would be my twenty-sixth to be produced, premiering in this my thirtieth year, and that it would become part of the series of original family musical adventures that audiences at the Lyric have taken to their hearts in recent years.

My involvement with the Lyric dates back to 1998 when Alice The Musical was commissioned for the theatre’s iconic old building on Ridgeway Street. This production was followed in 1999 by my musical adaptation of Hansel & Grettel. To date these are my only musicals to have been presented in both the old Lyric and on the current beautiful Lyric main stage (Hansel & Grettel was revived in the new building in 2012, and Alice The Musical finally returned home in 2018 having been produced around the world).

My musicals staged in the original Lyric building also include Red - The Red Riding Hood Musical (in 2001), McCool (in 2002, coproduced on tour with Big Telly Theatre Company), and Pinocchio (in 2006, nominated as Best Production for Children and Young People at the UK Theatre Awards). The Tale of the Beauty and The Tail of the Beast was presented in 2009 during the Lyric’s residency at the Elmwood Hall whilst the new theatre was being built.

For today’s modern Lyric main stage I was commissioned to write the adult cult hit musical comedy Molly Wobbly which was presented in concert in 2011 and 2012 prior to acclaimed runs at the Edinburgh Fringe and in London’s West End (where it was nominated for five BroadwayWorld West End Awards), and more recently the Lyric commissioned the musicals-forall-ages Peter Pan The Musical (in 2019) and Pinocchio The Greatest Wonder of the Age (in 2021).

The Snow Queen is, ultimately, a story about belonging, and as much as Gerda feels that she belongs in the sunny climes of Blomsterby, my shows have, for more than two decades now, belonged at the Lyric Theatre. No matter where else in the world my works are produced, they always retain something of their original production, of the Lyric, and of Belfast.

So whilst this musical of The Snow Queen is set in a far-off land, its heart is to be found very much closer to home; admittedly the weather in Blomsterby is very different to that in Belfast, specially in December. The show is a thank you letter to my home town, to its landmark full time producing theatre, and to all my friends and colleagues here - and to my choreographer and friend Deborah, the Gerda to my Kai for almost thirty years.

Gerda sings, “Have you ever had a dream of going on an adventure?”. Well, I did. And it has been my absolute pleasure to bring you all along with me.
