When her parents are on a state visit, Arabella unexpectedly gets royal lessons. Her grandmother Omi wants to teach her how to become a real queen - including singing the official national anthem. But Arabella has other plans: have fun, sing together with her friends, and preferably invent a completely new national anthem!

With her friends - princesses from all over the world - Arabella decides to transform the old song into something new. But that is easier said than done. As she fervently follows her dream, she clashes with Omi, who, as a queen, has learned to stick to traditions. But sometimes change begins with a child with a big idea - and an even bigger heart. A performance that touches, inspires and makes you dance!

About director Priscilla Vaudelle
Director Priscilla Vaudelle af from the Academy of Theater and Dance in 2013 and founded the collective LostProject, with which she develops projects that make social themes tangible. With music, spoken word and dance, she sketches universes in which identity, social pressure and community converge. Her performances, such as Man Down (2017) about masculinity and BIMS (2021) about gentrification in the Bijlmer, touch deep strings. In 2023, she staged OSSO, a probing family portrait. With her passion for inclusive storytelling and raw emotion, she breathes new life into the colorful theatrical adventure of Princess Arabella.
