Description: Beneath a sky full of stars a decision is made. This decision sets off an astonishing chain of events. And a journey involving a talking leopard, a greedy King, a magical bird, a tidal wave a Sea Witch, a lost soldier, a devious dolphin, a war - and a trail of feathers in the snow. This family play is an epic story of magic and migration. Covering over five hundred years - and with scope for a huge cast - 'Feathers in the Snow' explores how stories give meaning to random events and our constant need to find somewhere we call 'home'. It premiered at Southwark Playhouse, London in December 2012.
