The Emperor's New Clothes was originally written in Danish by Hans Christian Andersen in 1837.

Since then, it has been translated into over 100 languages.

There have also been adaptions, including a 1919 Russian short film, a 1961 Croatian feature film, and a 1965 Doctor Who serial which used the story as inspiration.

Next Friday, Nhill residents will be able to view another adaptation, performed as a pantomime, featuring local talent both off and on the stage.
