Rating 5/5
A touching tale, full of the joys of spring and the wonder of nature. Part of the Made In Scotland series; this magical adaptation of Giono’s beautiful story featured perfect puppetry, a life affirming message and sensuously scented props which expertly brought sad sentiments together with funny and witty dialogues.
Charming to watch for both children and adults, this well constructed and skilfully acted play is both wise and delightful. The dog is undeniably a star of the show with his giggle-inducing quips and mischievousness, whilst remaining a canine of good heart.
I would recommend this moving moral fable for all of humanity. Warming and wonderful theatre!
