An American Premiere
My Fairytale
A musical about Hans Christian Andersen
This gorgeous Stephen Schwartz musical was first produced as Mit Eventyr by Flemming Enevold for Denmark’s 2005 bi-centennial celebration of Hans Christian Andersen’s birth. From the darkened stage of the Royal Danish National Theater in 1846, Andersen is launched into the timeless landscape of his own imagination. What he discovers there not only changes his life, but the world, and proves the genesis for immortal storytelling. His life’s fairytale is a quest through which he learns to relinquish possibilities to achieve dreams, and makes his greatest discovery – himself. A delightful revel in the “children’s stories” from Andersen’s imagination, My Fairytale is an enlightening journey into the soul of the artist and a heartfelt celebration of the Danish spirit.
