About The Little Match Girl
A snowy stage sets the scene for an icy cold Christmas eve, where the little match girl paces the emptying streets, desperately trying to sell her matches.
Based on Hans Christian Andersen’s traditional tale and with a powerful message at its heart, The Little Match Girl reminds us of the importance of kindness and to consider those less fortunate than ourselves.
This world-class dance production with live music performed on stage is free to access until 31 January 2026, alongside fantastic resources on Padlet, which have been tailored to suit those working at Key Stage Levels One and Two. The resources include lesson plans and a video dance workshop, plus a framework for exploring different areas of the curriculum, including themes of kindness and greed in SMSC and the classic work of Hans Christian Andersen in literacy.
