Event Details

Snow White, choreographed by Artistic Director/CEO Zalman Raffael & with an original score from Shinji Eshima. This production embraces the darker, more complex elements of the classic tale exploring themes of beauty, power, and the human condition. The Queens obsession with her magic mirror serves as a poignant metaphor for contemporary struggles with self-worth and the allure of external validation. Snow White unfolds not only as a captivating story for children but as a rich, reflective experience that invites audiences to contemplate forgiveness, growth, and redemption. The Princess as Radiant as Snow awakens not by a kiss, but through the collective love and mourning of those who cherish her, symbolizing the transformative power of community and compassion. In this thoughtful retelling, the Queens final gesture of giving the magic mirror to the Princess signals a cycle broken by wisdom and strength reminding us all of the enduring possibility for change.
