Based on Hans Christian Anderson’s classic children’s book, this modern adaptation fuses glow-in-the-dark electroluminescent wire puppetry and choreography with classical, jazz and pop music. The story stars an ugly duckling that displays strength and courage, ultimately transforming into a beautiful swan. Broadway.com has referred to the performance as “an eye-popping display of storytelling that’s like nothing else you’ve ever seen.” For additional information, please call the University’s Shea Center Box Office at 973.720.2371 or visit wp-presents.org. 04/17/14
