for children over 5 years up to grown-ups

What is happening with the friendship, when it has to be spread to the two different parts of the world? Can it survive a very steep slope, rest on a velvet grass or has it to split up?

Together with the dancers and actors enter to the imaginary world of the bushy tree and become for the while one of the very small people, to which this tree presents the whole world. Wander barefoot along the branches from the very top to the roots, around the lake in the fine grass, and discover its secrets, which is in fact one big parable about our planet.
