Enter the magical world of twelve princesses who love to dance. Each night, they sing the song that allows them secret passage into an enchanted forest where music plays and their mother's spirit watches over them. 

Their father, the King (tired of finding twelve pairs of worn shoes in the morning) issues a proclamation. The first person to discover where the princesses go each night shall receive his or her heart's desire and eight bags of gold! The Prince of Arrogance and Matthew the commoner come to visit, and when the Spirit Mother gives Matthew an invisibility cloak, events begin to change.

With exquisite music and minimal set, this fresh retelling of The Twelve Dancing Princesses is sure to entertain audiences of all ages.
