Main stage
Gerda and
Kay are not siblings, but loved one another just as much as if they were. Their
story is the story of the invincibility of fidelity and goodness. One day the evil
and cold Snowqueen pays Kay a visit and takes him to her kingdom of eternal
frost. Gerda cannot cope with this loss of her comrade and vows to rescue him
even if it will be the last thing she does. She goes through a myriad of
troubles and hurdles on her journey to find Kay, but according to the rulesets
of fables, she comes across others willing to help her: a crow, a thief girl
and a deer who all accompany her to the Snowqueen’s realm. In the end thanks to
bravery and love she frees Kay and they evade the Snowqueen’s wrath who is in
hot pursuit, but Gerda’s love and Kay’s ingenuity makes short work of the cold,
unfeeling queen.
