The Grand Kyviv Ballet's new winter ballet “The Snow Queen” is based on the world-famous fairy tale by Hans Christian Andersen. This fascinating romantic story, set to the music of Edvard Grieg, Jules Massenet, Mozart, and Vivaldi, will give unforgettable bright emotions of happiness for adults and children. Handsome Kai, robbers, forest fairies, a funny Snowman, fabulous trolls, and, of course, brave beautiful Gerda grace the stage this winter. Kai and Gerda are sitting in their garden among roses when a shard of a witch’s mirror gets into Kai’s eye causing his heart to become hard and cold. One winter day a whirlwind of snow rises around him and he disappears, taken by the Snow Queen who lives in a world of ice and snow. Gerda then goes in search of Kai. She faces many challenges, but love helps her get through them and free Kai from the spell of the Snow Queen.
