Dakota Players Children’s Theatre Residency in Wabasha

Featuring: You Look Marvelous!

A hilarious musical retelling of The Emperor’s New Clothes

Get ready for a week of theatre magic! Dakota Players returns to Wabasha with a full musical theatre residency for kids entering Kindergarten through 12th grade in August 2025. In just five days, students will rehearse and perform a full production with professional costumes, lighting, sound, and set design—all provided by Dakota Players!

About the Show:
You Look Marvelous! brings a witty twist to the classic Hans Christian Andersen tale, The Emperor’s New Clothes. This musical explores the themes of vanity, courage, and authenticity, reminding us that “there are no stupid questions,” even “Where are your clothes?”
