The Opera at the Castle
A show for children from 5 years of age. The award for the Best Choreographer of 2015 for Jacek Tyski! A ballet based on the novels by Lewis Carroll "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" and "Through the Looking Glass".
The story of Alice, who falls through a magic mirror into a land of magic and spells, is known by every child. An inspiring story about the conflict between good and evil and true friendship moves even adult viewers, stimulates their imagination and takes them into enchanted days of childhood. The best way to create it on stage is dance, music with a rich composition using modern techniques and instruments, stylised after the one which we know from films, and fabulous, glamorous costumes and stage design. The most talented Polish artists of the young generation took care of the construction of the land from children's imagination.
This is the only ballet written on commission in recent years, with the participation of a full symphonic orchestra.
The story is based on Lewis Carroll's novels Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass, and inspired by Tim Burton's film Alice in Wonderland.
