About
A puppet version of Hans Christian Andersen's The Tinderbox, with cheerful songs, about a poor soldier who stumbles onto incredible riches. Along the way the story touches on generosity and vanity, fear of the unknown and finding courage, and asks whether the hero wins the princess's hand in the end. It suits preschoolers and early school-age kids who can follow a story told in Slovak.

Pistoriho palác
Štefánikova 25, 811 04 Bratislava
