The Little Match Girl

Work:: The Little Match Girl (S02053943916)

It is Copenhagen on a bitterly cold New Year's Eve and a young match girl is unable to go home. She has sold nothing all day. In a desperate attempt to keep warm she strikes the very things she needs to sell. From within the flames she discovers a beautiful world.
Author Hans Christian Andersen

Production:: (T0269553384)

A magical and mischievous twist on this well-known tale, complete with puppetry, Christmas carols and audience interaction. It is Christmas Eve, snow litters the ground and the little girl is alone. She is desperate to get warm so she lights the matches that she has been selling. With each match she is transported by its warmth into the scenes behind the glass. She becomes a part of the festivities, meeting father Christmas, playing in the snow and eating the most delicious feast but with the light of each match they fade and are just beyond reach. Using their unique combination of visual storytelling, live music and object work, Moon On A Stick transform the stage into a stunning snowy spectacle. This beautiful, playful production is suitable for ages 3+ providing a perfect Christmas show for a younger audience and a joyful retelling of a winter classic.
