The Emperor's New Clothes - Brighton Fringe
The Emperor's New Clothes
Using Czech-style marionettes, ‘The Emperor’s New Clothes’ is an energetic and fun rendition of the classic Hans Christian Andersen story. Following the success of last year's show, this traditional tale is back at the fringe for children and families to enjoy. Join the pompous, spoilt Emperor and his fawning court as he finally gets his embarrassing comeuppance.

Brought to life by one performer and six marionettes, join Strings Attached Puppets for this tale of vanity, lies and underpants.
