The Green Bird

About the show

After Queen Tartagliona orders her daughter-in-law buried and her twin children killed, the twins survive and grow up with a butcher. They are cast out when they learn they are not his children; their search for their true parents is shaped by Renzo’s cynical philosophy, Barberina’s attraction to the speaking Green Bird, and a magical quest for the singing apple and dancing waters. The twins ultimately restore their family and defeat Tartagliona.
