“…a beautiful dream with glorious music” ~ UNIMA-USA

This lush production brings to life Hans Christian Andersen’s classic tale of an Emperor who forsakes his beloved nightingale for a jeweled mechanical bird - only to find himself alone and dying when the machine breaks down due to overuse. Can the real nightingale return in time to bargain with Death and save the Emperor?
