„Town Musicians of Bremen“
Author: Brothers Grimm
Director: Vasko Mavrovski
Actors:
Julijana Mirchevska Petar Spirovski Nikolche Projchevski Katerina Anevska Drangovska Zhivko Borisovski
Age of audience: 3+ Duration: 50 min
„A new visualization of the famous fairy tale first written by the Brothers Grimm, the story of the Bremen Town Musicians or the story of exiled animals looking for a new home, a seemingly simple story that hides a more layered analysis. We will follow the story through the prism of History, the chronicler of human life, who is stuck in his world of books and who is the absolute ruler in that magical world of written words, four elderly animals, unable to perform their work tasks and the cruelty of their owners towards them is the motive for the birth of this story. The purpose of this play is for children to deal with animal mishaps through many comic scenes, to have the opportunity to learn about the rules and laws that oblige us humans to take care of animals. And to see the need for each of us to have a friend by our side when it is most difficult.“
