This is a new version of the classic story by Erich Kastner, who is considered to be one of the most popular children
books' writers in the world.
Punktchen is a girl with imagination and sense of humor, who comes from a wealthy family. Anton is a boy from a poor neighborhood, taking care of his sick mother and even of the family's livelihood.
The play tells the story of their unusual friendship against the background of a plot filled with adventures and surprises. Punktchen and Anton rush to help each other, manage to overcome crooks and thieves and help justice win.
This show presents a mosaic of colorful and amusing images that create a rich and theatrical world. The play is about the friendship of two children who manage even to teachthe adults an important lesson about true friendship, equality and love.

"This is the most beautiful play I have ever seen, and it is for adults as well….A great show following which the children
rush to read the book and remain with its wonderful message" (The Tel-Aviv local newspaper- "Zfon Ha'Ir" 13.04.005)
