San Francisco's internationally renowned Presidio Dance Theatre presents their annual spring event on Friday, May 29 at the Palace of Fine Arts Theatre (3301 Lyon Street, San Francisco) - a premiere ballet theatre presentation of the beloved children's tale The Little Lantern Ballet, Discover the Magic, Experience the Light. "The magic of this beautiful story is matched by the dedication of our artists," said Sherene Melania, artistic director of the Presidio Dance Theatre. "The story's message is timeless, and the music, sets, and costumes for this production, are enchanting." The premiere production of The Little Lantern Ballet is based on the popular children's book written by beloved Palestinian Author Ghassan Kanafani with libretto and choreography by Sherene Melania, who will also dance the lead role of Princess.
The Little Lantern Ballet is a story about a king who dies, leaving his only daughter and heiress to the throne. He leaves his will with the wise man in the castle, which instructs his daughter that in order to become the queen of the kingdom, she has to bring the sun into the castle before the candle melts. The princess, being young, thinks that she will be able to catch the sun and carry it on her back to the castle. She tries many ways, but to no avail. She later locks herself in her room, and on the eighth day, finds a note under her door, saying that by locking herself in, she will never find a solution. The climax of the lovely tale reveals how young princess succeeds in "bringing sun" into the castle.
