About The Lamplighter presented by Dramatic Truth Ballet Theatre
Do you ever feel unseen or insignificant? Do you ever wonder if others have been given more value or importance than you?
This spring, Dramatic Truth Ballet Theatre invites you to accompany us as we venture into the magical land of Mira Veyle and encounter powerful empresses, mythical Nevira, and dark agents. Journey into the brightly-colored Kingdom of Timir and meet Gwen the Lamplighter as she discovers the true value of being faithful with what she has been given. In the allegorical kingdom of Timir lives a good queen who gives each of her subjects a special job. Gwen is the kingdom lamplighter, but she feels very unimportant and insignificant. However, we discover through a series of events that the kingdom's fate is saved through her daily faithfulness. It's a parable on the value of faithfulness for all ages!
