The Pale Baron is the great leader of the underwater state. He dislikes poets very much - their poetry can have all sorts of double meanings and that makes him feel very uncomfortable. Luckily, Felix and Felka are not poets. They are singers....

A new musical fable about a great friendship between two musicians during a repressive regime that hunts down anything or anyone deemed to be superfluous or different. A story full of heart and conviction that celebrates the power of friendship, words and music, told with gentle humour by the makers of The Queen Has Vanished.

The Pale Baron will be performed in English.

The Pale Baron is a musical fairy tale that could just as easily be about a dictatorship from the past as one from the future, and which adults and children will each find very useful in different ways. So let come the poems, the blank lines, the blush and the hesitation.
