NEW CLOTHES

In this modern reimagining of the classic tale, an attention-seeking emperor obsessed with fashion hears a rumor about a fabric so magnificent it hides in plain sight—only people who are truly smart and powerful can see it.
The emperor tracks down the “fabric” and has designers make it into new clothes. But when he wears the clothes in public all anyone can see is his silly long underwear! Will anyone be brave enough to stand up to false claims and fake news and tell the emperor the truth?
This modern dance performance for children of all ages brings the audience into the creative process, all while telling a timeless tale of truth and power.

En esta reinvención moderna del cuento clásico, un emperador que busca atención y está obsesionado con la moda oye un rumor sobre una tela tan magnífica que se esconde en simple vista: solo las personas que son realmente inteligentes y poderosas pueden verlo.
El emperador rastrea la "tela" y hace que los diseñadores la conviertan en ropa nueva. ¡Pero cuando usa la ropa en público, el public solo puede ver su tonta ropa interior larga! ?Hay alguien con suficiente valor para levantarse y decir la verdad al emperador?
Este espectáculo de danza moderna para niños de todas las edades lleva al público al proceso creativo, mientras cuenta una historia eterna de verdad y poder.
