| Synopsis
Tami Stronach, the iconic Childlike Empress in The NeverEnding Story (celebrating its 40th Anniversary this year), makes her long-awaited return to the big screen in the new fantasy film MAN AND WITCH: THE DANCE OF A THOUSAND STEPS. When a lonely goatherd discovers that he has been cursed at birth to never take a wife, he makes a bargain with a reclusive witch to reverse the spell, only to find that if he can’t complete her three impossible tasks, he will never find true love.
About Tami Stronach |
|
| Tami Stronach, Executive Producer and star of Man and Witch, began her acting career as The Childlike Empress in Wolfgang Petersen’s 1984 cult-classic The NeverEndingStory. One of the great enigmas of 1980s fandom, Stronach famously left Hollywood as a rising child star to pursue a career in dance. After attending conservatories in New York and London, Stronach became a celebrated Modern Dance choreographer and performer in New York City and went on to create original stage productions as an actor, dancer, choreographer, and producer.
In 2015, she co-founded the award-winning entertainment studio Paper Canoe Company with husband and Man and Witch co-star Greg Steinbruner to create family-oriented content for the stage and screen. |
