The art of storytelling is at the heart of this classical—style children's show in which three young people set out to find the Bird of Light and save the life of their mother, the Queen. Each phase of the journey is a story within the main story, with its own unique mood and atmosphere. There's the knockabout comedy of the robbers in the Forest of Night, the spine-tingling mystery of the secret of the Sea of Serpents and a final dramatic encounter with the witch, whose power to turn children to stone is overcome by the heroine's own power to enchant the witch by telling her stories. The play contains all the classic elements of folk legend: the three wishes, the three gifts; the youngest child who is thought of as a simpleton but who ultimately succeeds in doing the impossible. The setting is simple and atmospheric. Full scope is given to the cast to conjure the magic of theatre in the audience's imagination through their versatile skills. Area staging. Orchestration available.
