The Ugly Duckling
H.C. Andersen’s classic fairy tale is ripe with emotion and drama. It is a constantly relevant story about feeling like you don’t belong anywhere, about being bullied and scorned, and about ultimately finding yourself and where you belong. The story is told here as a touching, sad, funny and exciting, newly composed musical drama that spurs the imagination of young and old alike.
