About this Event
Snow White and Red Rose:
The story of two sisters, a bear and a nasty gnome...
Carolin and Paula performed the shadow theatre performance of "Frau Holle" (Mother Holle) last year at the Goethe-Institut Toronto with great success. Their artfully crafted paper figurines and settings are one of a kind and will certainly enchant us this year when the ancient German fairy tale of "Schneeweißchen und Rosenrot" comes to life. The duration of the play is approx. 30 mins. The language will be German.
Afterwards, we invite everyone to join our fairy tale costume party! We are looking forward to all the colorful costumes of favourite fairy tale charachters - wolf, grandmother, princess or maybe unicorn?! Fairy tales certainly allow for many different magical creatures. Come join the fun!
