Based on the book by Michael Ende.
Princess Sleeping Beauty leads a wonderful life, because her father is the king of Slumberland. She only has one problem: that wonderful life could soon be over. For ever since Princess Sleeping Beauty sent away the Dream Eater, the whole country has been plagued by bad dreams. The people are threatening to revolt. What can be done?
Nobody knows what to do - until Schlafittchen's father finds the completely starved little dream-eater on an adventurous journey. But can the two of them return to Slumberland quickly enough?
The opera version of The Dream Eater is one of the most performed German-language operas of the postwar period.
