The protagonist of the performance is Eeyore, a tailless donkey, who is celebrating his birthday in his house. In a room full of items that carry memories of various kinds, the adventure of the main characters from a well-known collection of stories begins to unfold slowly.
Winnie the Pooh, Piglet, and Tigger set out in search of the perfect gift for their friend, who at first glance seems to like or want nothing. And although, as Tigger says, sometimes it's hard to love when one is lacking the essentials, the group puts their heads together and transforms Eeyore’s sad refuge into a place of friendship and love with imagination and compassion.
Based on the famous stories by A.A. Milne, the production emphasizes the perspective of Eeyore the donkey and speaks about building trust, while breaking away from the popular images through which we usually view Pooh and his friends.
In this children's performance, a girl becomes Pooh, Tigger speaks through the plush rabbit, and the multifaceted forest shines through the many objects that sometimes become roots, sometimes the cutest cupcakes, in an associative way.
