The Nightingale


  • Children's Creativity Museum 221 4th Street San Francisco, CA, 94103 United States (map)

Decoding the mechanics of love

In the forest on the outskirts of a small town, there lives a magical Nightingale whose song can stir even the hardest of hearts.  When the Emperor learns of this rare creature, he is determined to capture her.  Can the Nightingale be replaced by a Mechanical facsimile?  

Inspired by Hans Christian Andersen’s fairytale, The Nightingale is an epic love story that speaks to the most pressing issues of our time through a compelling mixture of acrobatics, aerial arts, and timeless storytelling.
