Die olifant

A zoo director puts his own ambitions above the well-being of his animals when he creates a fake rubber elephant to save money. A swan is dismissed from his position at the municipal park for public drunkenness. A lion refuses to eat the Christians in the arena – not because he cares for them, but because he suspects they’ll soon be in charge of the state. A world of absurd bureaucracy, arrogance, and the comic consequences of misguided decisions. This puppet production brings to life Sławomir Mrożek’s award-winning collection of hilarious short stories. Join us for a mix of comedy and critique, where the absurdity of our political world is brought to a fore.
