The Moscow Puppet Theater will present the play “The Tale of the Capricious Princess and the Frog King.”
This is an instructive and amusing story about a capricious princess who one day meets the Lord of all Frogs living in the Royal Pond and receives an unusual gift from him. Viewers will also meet the prince who loves fairy tales, and the ladies-in-waiting who enjoy bickering with each other.
The story is performed by three street artists. They transform into different characters, play with puppets and musical instruments, sing, and even walk upside down. Behind the cheerful performance lies the message that what truly makes a person beautiful is not appearance or clothes, but a kind and generous soul.
Director — Pyotr Vasilyev, artist — Alevtina Torik, composer — Andrey Zanoga.
Starring: Polina Malakhova (Princess), Honored Artist of the Moscow Region Stanislav Frolov (Frog King, valet, circus director, king), Honored Artist of the Moscow Region Alexander Tretyak (prince, queen, doctor, postman).
