Ensemble Theatre presents SNOWFLAKE by Mike Bartlett, an intimate and bittersweet Christmas story about generational conflict, from 30 October - 21 November 2026. 

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.  

Following its successful Australian premiere in 2025, director Jo Bradley is reunited with original cast members James Lugton as Andy, Claudia Elbourne as Maya, and Lilian Alejandra Valverde as Natalie. 

Written by multi award-winning UK playwright Mike Bartlett, SNOWFLAKE is a laugh-out-loud, lump-in-your-throat festive showdown about generational differences and why it’s never just “pass the gravy.”
