Once Upon a Time

About

"Once upon a time…" Fairy tales speak of castles, enchanted forests, and magical beings. Heroes battle dragons, break curses, and live happily ever after. But what happens when we step beyond the pages of these stories into the real world? Once Upon a Time invites us to explore fairy tales in a new way—beginning with fantasy and love and moving toward real stories of courage, resilience, and hope. Through dance and storytelling we travel from mythical lands to the lives of those facing their own challenges: migrants seeking a new beginning, survivors overcoming obstacles, and dreamers fighting for their future. Their kingdoms are not made of gold but of homes rebuilt. Their battles are not against monsters but against barriers and injustices. Their magic lies not in wands and spells but in love, perseverance, and strength. Over the course of the evening this transformation is brought to life through movement and music, guiding us from the realm of fantasy into reality—where true fairy tales happen every day.
