At Strule Arts Centre · Townhall Square, Omagh, Co. Tyrone
Strule Arts Centre in Omagh hosts a one-off family theatre show, Tale Of The Frozen Heart, on Saturday, 8 August 2026 at 2pm. The venue bills it as singing and dancing fun for all the family, built around a story of betrayal, reindeer and sisterly love, told by a character named Nora as her favourite story of all. The show runs 1 hour and 25 minutes, a single afternoon performance rather than a run of dates.
The production is a touring family show rather than a local am-dram production, staged in Strule’s main theatre space. Expect a narrator-led fairytale format, with Nora guiding the audience through the story, songs and dance numbers woven through the telling, and staging built around snowy, wintry effects that the venue promotes as a highlight worth seeing in person. It is pitched as a whole-family outing rather than a strictly young-children’s show, with enough songs and spectacle to hold older kids and adults as well as toddlers. As a single 2pm Saturday matinee, it suits families looking for an indoor activity that does not eat into the rest of the day.
Strule Arts Centre is on Townhall Square in Omagh town centre, within walking distance of the bus station and the main town-centre car parks.
A Saturday matinee like this pairs easily with a wander around Omagh town centre or a walk along the Strule beforehand. There is more to see in Omagh and across Co. Tyrone.
