Project X Theatre Presents Theatre Under The Trees 2025 - Thumbelina

Tiny Thumbelina has always felt out of place in her protective mother's big world... until the day she finally hears about people just like her - fairies! Soon, Thumbelina finds herself lost in the woods and caught in the middle of an ageless conflict between the Fairies and the Toads, with Thumbelina herself as a bargaining chip. It will take all of Thumbelina's creativity, wit, and skill with a sword to find her way home again.

This campy and adventurous world premiere by local emerging playwright Jakob Kopytko will be directed by Kaleidoscope Theatre for Young People's Pat Rundell.

Best for: ages 6+
Running time: approximately 2 hours, with an intermission
Content information: Thumbelina is based on the Hans Christian Andersen fairytale and therefore features themes of marriage and consent.
