Synopis
Nestled within a beautifully crafted forest made of sustainable materials, a woman resides in her cozy hut. Each day, she’s confronted with the carelessness of people who thoughtlessly leave their waste in her cherished nature. One evening, overwhelmed with frustration, she lays down to sleep.
But this night isn’t like any other. From the deepest corners of the woods emerge its loyal inhabitants – a swift squirrel, a sleek snake, and a gentle elephant. United, they take it upon themselves to rid the forest of the human remnants.
As the morning sun heralds a new day, the woman awakens to find her surroundings astonishingly clean. Overwhelmed with gratitude and curious about her mysterious helpers, she draws paths into the fallen leaves with her broom. These aren’t just ordinary paths – they’re invitations. Invitations for the young audience to step onto the stage and become part of this magical realm. What begins as a theatrical performance seamlessly transforms into an interactive playground, where imagination and reality intertwine.
