You’re invited to the bazaar, where a wise old beggar will set your imagination on a magic carpet ride through tales filled with laughter, love and life lessons! When a spoiled young princess comes across the storytelling beggar in the marketplace, she gets more than what she came for... and is forever changed by it. Featuring lesser-known stories such as “The Husband and the Parrot,” “The Donkey Driver and the Two Thieves,” and “The Fisherman and the Genie” among others, the beggar skillfully brings the stories alive, highlighting the unique morals of each. Be whisked away with the princess to explore tales filled with talking animals, light-hearted comedy, spectacular miracles and timeless lessons for audiences of all ages.
