ABOUT
the show!
SOUNDS INTERESTING??MORE ABOUT THE PLOT!
This unique, theatrical clown show is derived from the tradition of masks. Full of simple, touching poetry of great depth. Built on the smallest mask in the world – the red nose mask!
It is an adventurous tale about friendship, courage and ice cream chocolate bars – for adults and children!
What kind of courage do we need to save those we love?
What exactly is loneliness?
And last but not least: Can we use a landline phone on the high seas?
"Boy" himself will answer these questions. This is an invitation on an amazing journey into his suitcase – a journey deep into your heart and imagination!
​
Family friendly show for children from 5 years old.
Duration: 60 minutes.
​
Boy dreams of becoming his pirate idol Jack Sparrow. Together with the bear Paddington, the crocodile Crock, he sets out on a floating suitcase on an adventurous journey through his deepest fears, overcoming a real and metaphorical ocean of loneliness.
Boy: Looking For Friends is a unique hymn to friendship, a poetic journey through joy and sorrow.
The innocent gaze of the clown will accompany us on our journey to a place beyond time and space, where everything becomes alive and real - including a plush toy, a floating suitcase and a broom that turns into a door.
Or maybe he never really left there?

Deep and at the same time very simple study of loneliness. Very cool way to engage the audience during the show.
Funny and moving story about a little man
living inside all of us.
Very well played, smart show about the need for friendship. With comic situations but also with thought- provoking moments.
