In this beautiful tale, twelve sisters learn what true friendship means when eleven of the sisters convince the twelfth, the youngest and sweetest of the lot, to cage a beautiful bird that flies into her room to tell her wondrous stories of the world. Claiming that she is protecting the beautiful creature from lurking cats, the young woman soon discovers that true friendship means giving each other freedom to be who we really are. Filled with the song, dance, and traditions of Thailand, this magical piece will fill the heart with joy, and give wings to the imagination.
