Today’s production is a unique possibility to transfer ourselves in time and to remember a series of values and details of our style of living, expressing the humanity and the ideals of our fathers and ancestors!

“A wonderful spectacle, very humane, radiating the warmth of good! How strong need we feel for such messages, filled in with hope, optimism and love! Young people must see this musical, in order to understand what do little delights in life mean! On the stage they will see cheerful children, who are happy that they are together with their parents! I am fascinated by the unity of the team! With so many participants I have the feeling of one whole on the stage, of amazing synchronicity between the children and the actors! And they all perform with visible pleasure the wonderful songs, they identify themselves fully with their characters! In this exactly becomes visible the inspired directing, which creates a unique artistic atmosphere, which totally conquered the audience! And it rewarded everybody with endless ovations!”
