We all need stories. Caragiale said: "No doubt, since the beginning of the world, the stories belong to it, but, of course, the story is in the eye of the storyteller - just like Saint Mary belongs to all Christians, but an icon with her face belongs to the craftsman who made it in his own vision". Marian Râlea will invite the children on stage to discover the story and to become characters, as the stage is the place to overcome fear, emotions and to discover a hidden talent, is the place where you can continue to play and to develop your imagination. With the help of the lights, the masks, the costumes and the words, the children will become the good characters. The evil characters will be performed by the actors from Cluj-Napoca National Theatre.
