Winged Daughters Theatre presents:
Enchanted wings
A young girl, a princess, is very ill. No one is able to help her and the whole kingdom is suffering, afraid that she might never recover. One day a strange healer appears, who is able to cure her. However, the king and queen’s rapture of happiness doesn’t last long as something completely unpredictable begins to happen…
The idea to create an interactive and high quality performance for children was born out of the meeting of an international cast of four multi-talented artists, who are also parents. Enchanted Wings is inspired by the story of the Finnish writer, Kaarina Helakisa’s Princess Wings, which poetically illustrates the importance of a supporting environment to allow children to discover their uniqueness.
Taking her experience from working with Song of the Goat Theatre, Anu Almagro will direct this piece that is a celebration of children’s imagination, full of dance, physical theatre, live music and songs sung in Polish and Finnish.
Aleksandra Bugaj and Samuel Alty composed the soundtrack performed live, using violin, guitar, voice percussion and loopers that is bursting with energy and color.
Enchanted Wings is a performance to enchant and spread the childhood wings that lie inside all of us!
