Of the many fairy tales by Hans Christian Andersen, The Snow Queen is the one that can be perfectly translated into the language of dance. Mirrored reflections, ice-clad scenery and sparkling snowflakes make the characters move with caution, desperately trying to find the right pace and rhythm. They tread lightly or carefully, or quite the opposite – they know perfectly well how to navigate the glimmering world with no signposts in sight.

Amidst the unfathomable, mind-captivating sceneries, Robert Bondara – the show's choreographer – tells a coming-of-age story of loss and courage, quest, resignation, and diversity. Following the Danish fairy tale writer, Bondara reiterates that his rendition is not just for children; the characters of The Snow Queen will make adults look deep into their hearts as well. There are many ways to tell of story of Kay, who was bewitched by an illusion.
