The Emperor lives in luxury and extravagance. More important than his state affairs, however, are the latest and most flamboyant garments: silk, velvet, and powdered wigs instead of audiences, laws, and boring meetings. As is usually said of kings, "His Majesty is in the State Council," here it is said, "the Emperor is in the dressing room."
One day, the Emperor receives an enticing offer from two travelers: they claim to be able to weave the most beautiful fabric one could possibly imagine. Moreover, the fabric has the wonderful property that it remains invisible to those who are unfit for their profession or are unlawfully stupid.
The Emperor is thrilled: "If I had such suits, I could easily find out who in my realm is fit for their office and who is not, and I could then distinguish the foolish from the wise." He has no idea that he has fallen for two swindlers.

The production by the Bremer Shakespeare Company tells the pompous life at the court of a ruler and how vanity and the power of illusion cause people to switch off their reason and succumb to their own foolishness.
The performers playfully and musically involve the children in the unfolding of the story, transforming the theater performance into an active, communal experience.

Duration: approx. 1 hour
