Based on the classic fairy tale, The Twelve Dancing Princesses, the story is about a King who has a problem. Every time he asks his daughters to dance for him, he finds the new shoes he just bought them have been worn to pieces.  No one can tell him how or why.  So he decides to announce a contest.  The first person who can solve this mystery will be allowed to marry one of the daughters.  Many try, none succeed.  Until a mysterious stranger appears. He is both wiser and poorer than all the others put together.  And he has something that no one else has: a Magic Cloak!
