Thumbelina

Arcata Playhouse 9th Annual Family Fun Series
Thumbelina - Oregon Shadow Theater

Thumbelina is one of Danish storyteller Hans Christian Andersen's most delightful
characters, a miniature girl born from a flower who has to find her own way in the world of nature.
This magical shadow production journeys through a series of natural habitats to discover
Thumbelina's home in the land of the flower fairies. Live music is performed on hammer dulcimer,
electric guitar, and an assortment of percussion and sound effects devices.
Oregon Shadow Theatre's production of "Thumbelina" has been awarded the
UNIMA-USA Citation of Excellence in the Art of Puppetry.
