WU X Kleine Lettertjes X De Betovering | From the peaks of the highest mountains in Bolivia to a remote island in the Japanese sea, Thé Tjong-Khing takes you on an unforgettable journey through his fairytale books. The stories he tells come from all corners of the world and date back centuries, yet the magic of these fairytales remains as powerful as ever.
During the Fairytale Fashion Show, his most extraordinary characters come to life in all their splendour – and talk back to their creator. Why do these fairytale figures always get up to such strange antics? And do they really all live happily ever after? Host Swendeline Ersilia tries to uncover the secrets behind the most beautiful fairytales, together with Khing and his characters, in this interactive and hilarious fashion show.
There are two shows: at 11:00 and at 14:00. With your ticket you have access to the show during one of both timeslots.
After the show, children can cut and paste a new outfit for the characters from Thé Tjong-Khing’s fairytales.
With Thé Tjong-Khing, Swendeline Ersilia, Charlene Schmeltz and Barry Emond
This production was created by Kleine Lettertjes and is presented in collaboration with Writers Unlimited and De Betovering. Children must be accompanied by a parent or adult guardian. Both children and their parents or guardians must purchase a ticket.
