The Spirit of the Music Box

The Spirit of the Music Box – A Journey of Courage, Hope, and Renewal
Step into a world of wonder as the Liezel Marais Dance Academy presents its 2025 production, The Spirit of the Music Box.

In an attic forgotten by time, a young girl discovers a mysterious music box, locked and silent. From its depths emerges a ballerina—the Spirit of the Music Box—whose dance reveals a story of four realms lost to flame, frost, poison, and silence. Guided by the Spirit, the girl embarks on a magical journey to heal the Earth.
 
She meets the grieving Forest Queen in a realm of wildfire, the frozen Snow Queen in her desolate mountains, the sorrowful rulers of the Ocean drowning in silence, and the sleeping Garden where hope itself lies hidden. Each gift she earns—courage, strength, care, and hope—brings her closer to restoring balance and unlocking the song of the music box.

Featuring enchanting music, imaginative storytelling, and exquisite choreography, this original dance production is a celebration of dance, creativity, and the resilience of nature. With dazzling costumes, evocative sets, and performances by dancers of all ages, The Spirit of the Music Box promises to be an unforgettable experience for the whole family.

Don’t miss this inspiring production that will capture hearts and remind us of the power of courage, compassion, and hope on Earth — culminating in a moving finale to Heal the World.
