Synopsis

This AATE Distinguished Play Award-winning adaptation of the famous tale from Hans Christian Andersen is a participatory play of the highest quality for grades K-3 and family audiences. Something is amiss in the court of the great emperor of China. Obsessed by his worldly possessions, the emperor has grown blind to the needs of his people and the real treasures of life. Ancient Oriental gods, the nightingale and the audience join forces to cure the emperor of his possessive and grasping ways. An important achievement in the often underestimated but difficult genre of audience participation plays. A genuinely compelling story. Director's notes include set floor plans, details on costumes, music and movement, as well as a discussion of characterization and other factors that influence effective participation.
