The main character of the story by Jungle Book author Rudyard Kipling is the Stone Age girl Taffy. Taffy is full of surprising ideas and likes to draw on cave walls. But the adults always misinterpret her pictures. So she comes up with the idea of painting sounds and noises to go with her pictures. Taffy calls these painted sounds and noises noise pictures. Taffy shows the noise pictures to her dad. Together they discover that several of these noise pictures painted in succession become words and that Taffy has discovered a great secret of the world, what we now call letters.
In his studio, the painter and cave painting researcher Salvatore Dal tells the audience enthusiastically, playfully and full of passion about life in the Stone Age, about famous Stone Age cave paintings and how he discovered Taffy's paintings in a cave on a research trip. But he can't explain why there are letters in these pictures when there were no letters in the Stone Age.
Together with the children, he can solve the mystery of Taffy's sound pictures, elicit their sounds and noises and have fun putting them together to form words.
A play that tells of the joy of painting, the fun of discovery, of sounds that become letters and the joy of being able to read and write.
