This well known folk tale of the musicians of Bremen gave Matija Solce, an established puppet artist, foundation for a vivacious and friendly performance, which combines puppets and music. As they do in the fairy-tale, the four animals make a journey, and they surprise the town folk with their music.
 
The children take part in the journey, when the puppets walk off the stage and mingle with the audience, as well as in the concert, when they sing with the puppets. The audience sit right on the stage, so the children get an opportunity to see the theatre from this, less common, but just as interesting point of view.
