The Flood is coming and Noah's Ark has strict rules – only a pair of every kind of animal can get on the board. How will a trio of best friends – the penguins – deal with this? A playful fable with grotesque elements written by Ulrich Hub belongs to the most frequently staged children's plays in our country and all of Europe. Let's get on board, the big penguin adventure for the whole family is just starting!

For audiences from 6 year of age, length 50 minutes.
