A guidebook for young travellers
Premiere 24. 11. 2018
Once upon a time there was a man and a woman who had no children. On one day, while the man had left to plough the field, his son was born, not bigger than a thumb. His mother decided to call him Tom Thumb. He was an extraordinary little boy! Hardly had he been born than he looked all around the house running and jumping about the kitchen and singing to himself. When it was about midday, he called to his mother: “Mother, Mother, give me some lunch, so that I can take it to Father in the field!”
/ Božena Němcová
What is it like to sail across a large puddle? Getting there through one eye, and back through another? Has every Why got its Because? An adventurous story about a little boy with the heart of a giant and about his joy of getting to know the world.
This production is staged as part of the Czech Year cycle on the occasion of the 100th anniversary of our Republic.
