Our story ballet, Gerda and The Snow Queen, is a retelling of Hans Christian Andersen’s classic tale of sweet friendship between a neighboring girl and boy, rooted in faith but challenged by evil.
Gerda & Kai delight in all good things, from the flowers in the window boxes to snowflakes, to Gerda’s grandmother’s stories. But when Kai’s heart and eye are pierced by slivers from the wicked hobgoblin’s evil mirror, everything looks different and he begins to treat Gerda badly and uncharacteristically follows the beautiful and alluring Snow Queen.
Gerda sets out to find Kai, encountering many challenges and apparent mis-directions, but she persists, and as it turns out each turn leads closer to Kai and redemption.
Come enjoy this story of virtue, resilience and determination in the face of adversity featuring 48 dancers from Still Pointe.
