In this is a piece of original folklore two storytellers lead an audience through a heart warming tale of a young girl, Amka, who goes on a quest to give a greedy dragon the warmest, best gift she knows: a hug. Along the way Amka makes friends a fluffy tailed Arctic fox called Kim Johannsson, and together they confront the dragon who froze the moon.
It’s so cold in Lunavik that the moon has frozen! A greedy dragon has gobbled every fire and every light, leaving only the white glow of the frozen moon. You can’t feel your toes, fire freezes in the hearth, and it doesn’t even snow... but not all warmth is lost.
Under the glittering stars and dazzling aurora, Amka’s family huddle together, fishing for eels and knitting plenty of hats. In this heart-warming tale, a young girl sets out on a quest to confront the dragon under the ice who has hoarded all of the fires and lights for himself. With lively poetry, transforming sets, atmospheric live music and exciting puppetry; Under the Frozen Moon brings to life a beautiful world of ice and adventure. Recommended for Ages 3+
