*Talespinner Children's Theatre (TCT) *continues its 2015 mainstage season
with a beautiful,  magical tale from a far away and long ago land.  Using
live action, puppets, music, magic and more, THE SILENT PRINCESS (a Turkish
Folktale) tells a story of friendship and courage that reaches across time
and place and into the hearts of its audience. THE SILENT PRINCESS opens
Saturday, June 6th, and runs through Sunday, June 28th at the Reinberger
Auditorium, 5209 Detroit Avenue, Cleveland, OH, 44102.

The Padishah's son is sick with loneliness, despite his family's riches.
His dearest wish is to be best friends with the Silent Princess. But the
Silent Princess sees no reason to talk to anyone. She has sworn to befriend
only the person who can convince her to break her silence. With the help of
his magical mouse companion, can the Padishah's son persuade the Silent
Princess to speak - and be his friend?

*ABOUT TALESPINNER CHILDREN'S THEATRE:* TCT is a Cleveland-based company
that develops and produces highly imaginative, original, collaborative and
interactive professional works for children that also stimulate creative
growth in its artists. At any time, these pieces may involve acting, dance,
music, puppetry, tumbling, drumming, and numerous other artistic
disciplines as imagined by the artistic teams working with and for TCT, and
are open to all creative possibility. TCT's aim is to bring theatre to the
community in its fullest form providing excitement, growth and joy for all
who are involved in and/or touched by its work.   *The Silent Princess
(aTurkish Folktale) *continues TCT’s fourth exciting season of bringing
world stories to Cleveland-area families and children. The 2015 mainstage
season began with *Rosalynde & the Falcon (A Topsy-Turvy Tale of England) *and
includes *Finn McCool (a Tale of Irish Mythology*), and *Prince Ivan & the
Firebird (a Russian Tale of Magic.)*

TCT strives to reach across socio-economic, cultural and traditional
boundaries to help awaken and bring better understanding by opening eyes,
ears, hearts and imaginations in the young people (and artists) of
Cleveland and its surrounds.

TCT creates work that remembers that children are smaller people, not
lesser people.
