Production details
A play with music, based on the story by Hans Christian Andersen for children aged 5 and over, and their friends, families and teachers. The Emperor is a very vain man, whose only worry in life is to dress in elegant clothes. When he hears of two tailors who have created a magical cloth woven from the finest silks, he has to have an outfit made from it. They tell him that the cloth is so magical that it will appear invisible to stupid people. When the outfit is finished, no-one in the Court dares to tell the Emperor they can't see the cloth. As the Emperor parades proudly through the city, in his fine new clothes, a small child, who has not heard about the magical cloth, shouts out that the Emperor has nothing on... Theatre
