A witch, a king, a beautiful opera singer and a dog with eyes as big as saucers!
Jonas, a young soldier, discovers treasure beyond his wildest dreams when he finds a tinderbox which gives him wealth and power beyond other mortals.
An epic tale inspired by the Hans Christian Andersen story, reflecting his own life as he searched for fame and fortune, follows Jonas’ adventures exploring friendship, betrayal and the importance of staying true to one’s values. Exciting and touching, the story includes a fantastical range of characters – a witch, a king, a beautiful opera singer and a dog with eyes as big as saucers.
