"What have you done?" shouts the white bear. The princess stares wide-eyed at the beautiful human lying there, the candle trembling in her hand.
White bears are human at night!

White Bear is bound in a spell and now the princess must embark on a journey no one has completed before her to find and save her friend. She must travel far and beyond, where no roads lead - east of the sun and west of the moon.

Through storytelling, dance and music, this old folk tale is brought to life by young performers who, with empathy and vigour, take the audience on a journey filled with excitement, wonder and strong emotions. The audience is taken on a story about courage, trust and the will to fight for what you believe in - a journey through icy mountains, deep forests and strong winds.

The trio MOJNA fills the room with atmospheric and lively folk music.
