Inspired by The Emperor's New Clothes
"When words fail — music speaks"
— H.C. Andersen
Inspired by Danish writer Hans Christian Andersen's The Emperor's New Clothes — a tale of vanity, mass delusion, and the one voice brave enough to speak the truth.
The Pretender is the second Musical Storytelling show. All lyrics, music and illustrations are original — a bold retelling for audiences who dare to look closer.
