Synopsis
The Steadfast Tin Soldier was Andersen’s first original fairy story, and it sets the trend for what was to follow. It contains many of his trademark features, most notably the tragic central character and the doomed love between the soldier and the ballerina. The production comes to life with simple physical theatre movements, optional dance sequences, puppetry, and mime.
