The Story of the Cloud, The Story of the Wheel, The Story of Light, The Story of Water, The Story of Sound, The Colors of the Rainbow – The Story of Colors and The Story of the Voice are the only plays in Croatia intended for children under 2 years. With these performances, we prove that theater is not only possible, but also necessary for the smallest audience. Young children do not yet fully understand, but they do feel the beauty of the pictures and words we tell them about the world around them. In this way, we instill in them aesthetic values for a lifetime, and indirectly and subconsciously help them understand the world around them.

On its way around the world, a cloud meets a boy playing in a meadow. Slowly embrace it, lift it into the air and take it on a journey… With this poetic story about a cloud that travels and shows the world to children with its journey, we will try once again to show all the power of art theater. In five suitcases we will place the whole world – deserts and rainforests, meadows and mountains, sea and rivers. We will bring it to the stage and tell the children a great story about the life that surrounds us, with pure play and visual sensations.

The play is intended for children from 1.5 to 5 years.

The show lasts 35 minutes.

Ticket price: 35 kn for free sale, 30 kn for groups of at least 20 people.
