While riding out a thunderstorm in their home, a family invests in the wonder and joy of shared storytelling to create their own version of the classic Hans Christian Anderson fable. This new adaptation uses comedy, music, dance, and a little magic to bring the timeless story of love and adventure to life. This once cautionary tale about a “disobedient girl” gets turned on its head and encourages young people to trust their inner voice and be unafraid to pursue their own path.
Saturdays at 11am and 3pm.
Sundays at 3pm.
As Southeast Regional Premiere.
Starring: Thaylin Maria, Dayana Morales, Kimberly Nicole Harvey, Anthony Blatter, and Sabrín Diehl.
