KinderWunsch: A New Musical Fairytale
KinderWunsch, a heartwarming musical fairy tale by German-Canadian Playwright Mira Alin Hills with Canadian composer Zach Ammon Peterson, tells a tale about a young woman Annalise in 1800’s Germany. In her desperation to provide an heir to her family, she seeks the powers of a witch with hopes that her wish will be fulfilled. She soon learns the sobering truth that there is a price for life- when her son falls in love, Annalise will have to pay for her wish with her own life.
This show is extremely powerful for young audiences with lessons about selflessness, sacrifice, forgiveness, kindness, and love, with a little hint of magic. It is even more relevant in our technology-driven world with the epidemic of disconnection from one another, that we take an earnest look at our actions and how they affect others.
