About this event
In the highest part of a city rises a statue of the Happy Prince. Although the prince admired by all inhabitants of the city he protects, he is sad. What is the secret behind his tears?
Inspired on the love for his two children, the famous poet and playwright Oscar Wilde started to write stories for children and in 1888 published one of the most beautiful and unforgettable children stories, The Happy Prince.
The Happy Prince tells a story of friendship between a statue and a swallow, two selfless and tender beings, who through their companionship overcome death.
The Happy Prince is presented by Maika Theater using table puppets and Shadow Theater.
