Who Sleeps and Dreams like a dog? is a musical fairytale play for the whole family that teaches not only how to deal with your own emotions, but also how to empathetically consider the feelings of others.

Children's Pirkkaset is visiting Rulla's winter holiday program!


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.


Performances in Culture House Laikku's Music Hall (3rd floor) at 9:30 am and 11 am.

Performance duration: 40 minutes 

Recommended age for the performance: 3–8 years old with their families


After the performance, a non-stop workshop related to the performance in Rulla from 12:30 pm to 1:30 pm.


Tukkateatteri was chosen as the touring performer for the Pirkkaset Children's Cultural Month. The show will tour Pirkanmaa municipalities in February 2026, delighting children and those with a child-like disposition. The tour will joyfully feature the Pirkkaset 2026 theme, which highlights kindness, empathy and children's own art.


Children's Pirkkaset is a joint children's cultural month for the municipalities of Pirkanmaa, during which children's culture can be seen and heard all over Pirkanmaa.
