A long time ago, an evil magician created a magic mirror that reduced the goodness and magnified the bad in anyone who dare saw their reflection in it. Suddenly, the unthinkable happened... The mirror shattered into millions of fragments whereupon it was swept up by the wind and spread throughout the land, affecting the unsuspecting townsfolk, and most profoundly, the heart and soul of the Snow Queen, herself.
Thus begins Hans Christian Andersen’s classic tale of the now jealous and cold-hearted Snow Queen, creator of the winter wind and snow. And the story of Kai and Gerda, two dear friends torn apart by the Snow Queen’s wrath.
Join Gerda (and a cast of seventy performers) on her quest to find Kai and rescue him from the Snow Queen’s realm. Meet the fascinating characters she encounters along the way. Experience the perilous obstacles that nearly take her life. Follow her journey to its surprising conclusion. And revel in the celebration of a town at last freed from the mirror’s evil spell.
Welcome to The Snow Queen, the incredible contemporary ballet that is redefining the genre. Already a hit with audiences in its first nine seasons of performances, this production is well on its way to becoming a perennial winter classic.
With imaginative choreography, a memorable score, creative costumes and a cast you’ll fall in love with, The Snow Queen is poised to do for ballet what Cirque du Soleil has already done for the circus.
