Opportunities for movement and mime to a scene where Prince Florimund,

his friends and their horses explore the magical forest

Time for quiet reflection to gentle music

What makes you happy ?

It includes 5 short scenes from the ballet which blend with the story and

offer an introduction to this type of theatre

Atlanta played an important part in the 1960's Civil Rights Movement

Martin Luther King Jr. lived here

Do some research with a friend, parent or teacher to find out more about him
