Om jag fötts till groda
Composer
Unga Teatern, Espoo, Finland
A "theatre concert" for children, based on poems about animals who dream about being other animals. With just an actor and a pianist, it is a very intimate and also very honest moment for kids to reflect on the attributes of animals and how they relate to us humans.
Directed by Matti Raita
