A puppet ballet set to The Sorcerer’s Apprentice score by Dukas, about a boy who starts something he cannot stop when he tries magic instead of muscle – as originally instructed.

with “THE FISHERMAN AND THE GENIE,” (with music by Françaix), tells the story of a fisherman and his wife who find they miss their frugal, simple life after the genie grants their wishes for wealth and power.
