★ Selected for the 2023 Taipei Children's Arts Festival “Children’s Theatre Pre-Exhibition Project”
★ A work-in-progress project under the 2024 Taipei Children's Arts Festival “LAB”
★ Inspired by the French author and stage director Joël Pommerat
The bedridden boy never skipped a night of his mother’s bedtime stories. But today, he takes the lead to rewriting the tragic fate of The Little Match Girl. In his version, the girl, armed with magical matches that reveal hidden wishes, ventures into the forest. There, she encounters ＢBig Red Riding Hood, the Emperor Who Sheds New Clothes and the Sleeping Beauty Who Can’t Fall Asleep. With the girl’s help, each of them unravels the knots in their hearts. And in the end, as the boy tells the story of The Little Match Girl, his mother finally understands: this is their own “happy ending,” in the world they share.
This is a dazzling production that transforms classic fairy tales - Why not try to redefine happiness by changing our perspectives? Never underestimate the power of rewriting stories...
This summer, step into the theatre with your children to witness the boundless imagination within children’s hearts. Follow the protagonist's glowing matches into an enchanted forest and craft your own joyful endings.
Fairy Tells… is created by 4 goods Studio, founded by Chen Lu-Huan, Chou An-Ti, and Chen Chia-Bao. Inspired by Joël Pommerat’s Fairy Tale Trilogy, which tells stories in a way that children long for adults to understand, the company first began its dialogue with young audiences in 2024. This year, the world of Fairy Tells… Who else might join this journey—perhaps an Evil Queen and her Magic Mirror…?
