Gerda and Kay are best friends. An enchanted mirror breaks and the splinters drill into Kay's eyes and heart. Everything becomes unimportant and ridiculous to him. He leaves the city in the sleigh of the enigmatic Snow Queen. But Gerda is not prepared to let her friend go just like that. All alone, Gerda sets off in search of Kay, who is said to be in the Snow Queen's castle. On her way to the far north, she experiences numerous adventures and encounters strange characters: a sorceress who wants to keep her with her, a headstrong princess, a wild robber girl and, last but not least, a talking reindeer. When Gerda finally reaches the Snow Queen's castle with the help of this reindeer, the most difficult task still lies ahead of her. "The Snow Queen" is one of the best-known and most popular stories by Danish author Hans Christian Andersen. A story about the power of friendship, about believing in yourself - and also about the sometimes quite stressful time of growing up. We are retelling Andersen's famous fairy tale in our own version for the Nationaltheater Mannheim. This content has been machine translated.
