Who Sleeps and Dreams like a dog? - children's theater performance and workshop

Children's Pirkkaset is visiting Rulla's Family Club!

Who Sleeps and Dreams like a dog? is a musical fairytale for the whole family about a dog called Dali, who dreams himself as someone else, runs away from his hostess after doing some mischief, goes on an imaginative trip in the middle of the stormy weather, meets the bugs of a deserted house and dances wildly among the grass. But what does the hostess think about all this? The play is based on the children's picture book Dog's Dream written by Taru Kumara-Moisio. The performance guides not only to process one's own emotions, but also to take the emotions of others into account with empathy.
