There are all kinds of love, but is there love stronger than that of blood ties? The wicked Stepmother put an evil spell on Elisa’s six brothers, turning them into swans, and only the girl can save them now. Will she manage the impossible task? Will she do it on time? By means of contemporary visual theatre, going far beyond traditional puppetry, the old tale becomes a highly-charged drama of family, love, and spirit meeting life’s dangerous challenges.
“Like a fairy tale,” – that is what people usually say about an unbelievable luck, or a sudden bliss of happiness. But, really, to find yourself in a fairy tale is hardly a winning ticket. Here, you not only have to meet unthinkable challenges, make intolerable choices, solve unsolvable riddles. Here, not just your life, but, what’s much scarier, the lives of your close ones depend on your success. And that is considering that your success guaranties nothing: the ending of a good fairy tale, as in real life, is impossible to foresee.
