Däumerling

In the organizer's words:

A play by Theater Anderland

A cheeky adventure for big, small and very small, based on the Brothers Grimm's fairy tale 'Daumesdick' and the Catalan version 'Patufet / Der Rotkohl'

Suddenly there he is, the boy who is as small as a thumb. But he is clever, has wit and a big mouth. Just as he is about to help his father at work for the first time, he suddenly finds himself all alone on an adventurous journey. He hides from shopkeepers, he bamboozles thieves, a cow swallows him and then the wolf gobbles him up.

Thumbelina, the boy who is only the size of a thumb, wanders, jumps and rampages through all stomachs and worlds in order to return home.
