The performance

On a morning just των like any other, a little tailor gets a note. It reads: “Your mission is to sew a coat by midnight. The size does not matter, but it must fit perfectly…” At precisely midnight the tailor completes his mission, but then… Where is the sewing machine running off to? Why are the scissors wearing a skirt? What has the thimble turned into?
Come join in the magical adventure of the tailor.
A play with a few words combining puppetry, object theater, textiles and music.
