ANDERSON, THE UGLY DUCKLING

Everyone knows the dear story of The Ugly Duckling which tells the fable of that bird which was different from the rest, but was actually a swan. The tale of The Ugly Duckling looks at themes which are crucial in today’s society such as bullying, generosity, beauty, accepting one’s body, authenticity, or self-love. In the form of a musical story with puppets and a narrator, the waters of this happily poetic pond are charted, and the importance of kindness, affection, and imagination are highlighted as a place for understanding in the world.
