| Middle of the Night |
A dream play for small children
Oh dear! Jocke is just about to start school. He hasn't been able to think about anything else
all week. And just to get ready, he's removed all the childish toys from his shelves. Its time
to grow up! Even his Teddy Bear ended up in the waste paper basket, although that didn't feel
very good at all.
One night, Jocke can't sleep. "Let's see now, six and three are nine, its 380,000 kilometres
to the moon, and dinosaurs lived several million years ago..."
Suddenly, a voice in the night calls out Jocke's name. It's the moon. He points out the entrance
to a secret tunnel under the blanket and Jocke enters a world called The Middle of the Night.
Here everything is topsy-turvy. The irritable King Prune rules, although nobody ever listens
to him, and Rag Angel can trick stones into becoming flowers. Nobody here thinks counting to
twenty is a major fun and you don't have to stop playing, just because you're getting bigger.
A performance with puppets, shadow play, music and big people.
