A playful dance version of H.C. Andersen's fairy tale, made for children and told entirely through dance and movement, with no words. The prince sets out on a long journey to find a princess with real feelings who dares to be herself, and meets three very strange princesses before someone unexpected knocks on the door of his own palace.
The show is set in a baroque fairytale world of powder, wigs and a mysterious conductor who may be up to something. The music comes from well-known classical ballets, including Swan Lake and The Nutcracker by Tchaikovsky. It is a good first meeting with ballet for young audiences.
