This highly theatrical and scintillating tale shimmers in a dreamscape in the land of ice and snow. It is the story of two young friends, Gerda and Kai, whose friendship is torn apart when Kai’s heart is pierced by a sliver of the Snow Queen’s evil mirror. He follows the heartless Queen to her Ice Palace. There, Kai is doomed to spend eternity in a world devoid of human love and compassion.
Only the enduring love of young Gerda can save him. But before she does, she must venture out into a world filled with adventure.
It is a mesmerizing story, perfect for a snowy day in winter or warm day in spring. May 10 – May 12, 2002 – Theatre Winter Haven, Florida
