The entire family will adore this world premiere musical adaptation of the timeless Hans Christian Andersen tale! The Emperor cares about nothing in the kingdom but his wardrobe! Even as his many closets are overflowing, he insists he wants a brand new suit of clothing for his birthday. He announces to the land that any tailor who can make him the "ultimate" suit will be richly rewarded. Two swindlers beguile the Emperor with elaborate descriptions of the suit they will create, adding one important warning - the suit can only be seen by those who are trustworthy and wise. Dishonest or foolish people will see nothing at all!
THE EMPEROR'S NEW CLOTHES will preview on Sunday, February 23 at 2pm and will open on Sunday, March 2 at 2pm and run through Sunday, March 23 at the Assistance League Theatre, 1367 N. St. Andrews Place in Hollywood.
