Odivo Theatre: The Wolf Who Fell Out of a Book – SAMPO Festival

A puppetry tale about the need to belong with live music. Has it ever happened to you that a wolf fell out of your favourite book? What trouble! Now he is lost, wandering around the lines aimlessly. Through the wilderness he strays – from prehistory to dinosaurs, knocking on a door of the Seven Little Goats, bumping into a pack of wolves. How many letters and pictures need to be jumped across and how many wolf tricks must be played until he finds a new home? For children 4 years old and up. The morning performances on Wed 26 and Thu 27 August at 10.00 are held for daycare and other children's groups: registration at kultus.hel.fi from 3 August on. Additionally, individual tickets can be bought at the Puppet Theatre Sampo website. The Wednesday evening performance at 17.00 is open for all audiences. Tickets sold at Puppet Theatre Sampo .
