Dancer

Moesgaard transforms into a frozen landscape as Hans Christian Andersen’s beloved fairytale returns in a spectacular family production.

A magic mirror, crafted by the Devil, distorts everything beautiful, making it appear ugly and ridiculous. When the mirror shatters, its splinters rain down upon the world, where childhood friends Kay and Gerda share a deep and loving bond. But when a tiny shard lodges itself in Kay’s eye, his joy and warmth turn to scorn and cold-hearted cynicism. His newfound arrogance catches the attention of the Snow Queen herself, who lures him away with icy kisses and an irresistible embrace. Suddenly, Kay vanishes—without a trace.
