The Snow Queen

A fairytale story about growing up and finding one's own path, which sometimes goes further than anyone would expect...

Andersen's famous fairy tale tells of rebellion, the quest for perfection and struggle against the given. But also about the power of emotion, sacrifice and compassion. About love beyond any stereotypes.

The flakes of snow that fall from the clouds high above us are beautiful and perfect. But their freezing cold often hurts. Kai is drawn to the Snow Queen in the same way that today's teenagers are drawn to study, travel, new social connections, and frontier experiences. And Gerda, though she wouldn't change her traditional world, would rather give up her own comfort and security to save him from what could hurt him. And not just him..

The timelessness of Andersen's dark fairy tale mixes motifs from the 19th to the 21st century. And so do the puppets and modern technology.

Please note: A large amount of smoke is used during the production. We therefore recommend that spectators with respiratory problems sit in the back rows or use a respirator. Thank you for your understanding.

The project is implemented with the financial participation of the EU through the National Restoration Plan and the Ministry of Culture.
