There's a new New Sint in town! Sinterklaas, the good old man, could really use a night off. He's tired, his knees are sore from climbing over all those rooftops and his ears are ringing from endless children's songs. So, he's called in the help of a new Super Sint, who's a couple centuries younger and more modern. This New Sint is ready to shake things up!

New Sint wants to bring a fresh breeze to this ancient holiday. With his neatly trimmed beard, stylish mitre and Gucci staff, he's ready to give those old traditions a makeover. Can the orchestra and its boring Pieten get a bit cooler, please? The Pieten will have their chance to show off their dance moves, vocal talent and entertainment skills during Sinterklaas Got Talent. Are they modern enough to stay on under New Sint?

This dazzling, musical Sinterklaas story asks if things always need to stay the same, or if some traditions should be abandoned. What do you think?
