Created by Artistic Director Janek Schergen, Peter and Blue’s Forest Adventure is a new one-hour children ballet blending elements of a fairy-tale with a meaningful moral.
The story unveils on a sunny midsummer morning, when Peter, together with his dog, Blue, and cat, Calico, venture into the enchanted forest to search for treats to surprise his mother on her birthday.
In the woods, Peter and Blue meet the forest guardians, the Blueberry Boys, who lead them into the most secluded and magical part of the forest. On their journey, they meet many new friends - Mister and Missus Strawberry, the Apple Blossom Girls, the trouble-making trio, Thistle, Thorn, and Acorn, and the tantalizing triplets Lilac, Rose, and Snapdragon. Each generously gives Peter special treasures to add to his mother’s birthday basket. After sending Peter and Blue home, all of them happily share the joy by the window as Peter presents his mother with the forest goodies.
