Efteling vertelt… Baron 1898 - Efteling producties
Following the success of the Efteling musical Efteling vertelt… Joris en de Draak, the Efteling is bringing a new and exciting story to Dutch theatres: the story of Baron 1898.
In the family musical Baron 1898, young Jochem and the traveller Gustav meet at the inn of a small village on the Zompige Heide. Gustav is on his way to his true love in a faraway land and tells Jochem passionately about his adventures. When he leaves, Jochem helps him cross the treacherous Zompige Heide.
A few years later Gustav returns to the inn. No longer as an adventurer, but as the greedy Baron Hooghmoed. He has changed since he discovered that there is gold to be found deep in the ground of the Zompige Heide. Blinded by the glitter of the gold, everything must make way: his true love, the nature around the Zompige Heide, Jochem. Everything.
Will the baron destroy the Zompige Heide to satisfy his hunger for gold? Will Jochem realise in time that it is up to him to save his village and the natural world? And who are those elusive singing figures who emerge from the mist at dusk?
Efteling vertelt… Baron 1898 is an adventurous family musical about pride, greed and love.
