"The Dancing Princess" \\xa0is an original story based on a folktale from Eastern Europe.\\xa0 It is about a princess named Yulia who loves to dance so much that she is always wearing out her shoes. \\xa0 She is afraid her father will be upset, so she doesn't tell him why her shoes are wearing out. \\xa0 Her father, King Valentine, decides to sponsor a challenge.\\xa0 Any young man who can find out Princess Yulia's secret within three days will win her hand in marriage and half of the kingdom.\\xa0 The contest is not going well.\\xa0 No one can stay awake long enough to discover the princess' secret until a stranger named Anatoly Padin arrives into the kingdom.\\xa0 He has a secret, too.\\xa0 It is a secret cape given to him by an old conjurer in the woods.\\xa0 It can make him invisible to the princess so he can follow her unseen - that is if he can stay awake long enough to see where she goes.

If this sounds familiar, this story was probably the basis for similar stories about twelve dancing princesses.\\xa0 Versions of that story were recorded by the Grimm Brothers and Hans Christian Andersen.\\xa0 \\xa0 We hope you enjoy this musical adaptation from Winking Kat.
