Des Kaisers neue Kleider

Approved

Entertaining and thought-provoking opera for the whole family when the Emperor's new clothes get their Scandinavian premiere at the Norrland Opera. The story is based on Hans Christian Andersen's classic saga, with music ranging from Czech folk music to German umpaumpa, from Puccini to Kurt Weill. The performance, which is sung in Swedish, is suitable for children from 5 years.

Only he who is wise can see the new clothes, he who understands nothing sees nothing!
The emperor rejoices in having figured out how to distinguish the foolish from the wise and, in particular, to remove those who may hinder his ambition to strengthen his power. He will appear in the new clothes in the city, those who do not understand the fantastic of the new fashion do not belong among the enlightened and can simply be sorted out. May only the people not find out that he himself can not see the clothes….
