About this event
T1 | 6+ | 2hrs (inc interval) Against the backdrop of the Northern Lights, a small town has been pushed to the brink of collapse in a bid for progress and prosperity. To rescue Midgard from certain destruction, the sorcerer and his apprentice must work out how to make magic together, and fast! This gripping family-friendly story sees brooms coming to life and love blossoming anew, as apprentice Eva discovers the explosive possibilities of her newfound magical powers, leaving havoc, catastrophe and joy in her wake. This enchanting new British musical explores the extraordinary world of a powerful sorcerer and his budding apprentice. This updated story is inspired by the classic Goethe poem that became an icon of Disney animation in Fantasia, which also featured Dukas’ classic symphony.
