From Harap Alb is a show that brings Ion Creangă's characters on stage, in a modern vision, through the eyes of today's teenager. Using music, dance and humor as the main tools, we aim to familiarize the new generation of children with Creangă's universe, using landmarks that are familiar to them.
The show opens with Horia, a teenager who, like any teenager, has disputes with his father on the topic of taking responsibility, he also quarrels with his best friend, Maria, who reproaches him for his selfishness and the fact that he always relies on her to solve school homework - this time it is even the Romanian fairy tale, a subject of reference in the Romanian Language and Literature.
But who needs such stories today? Do we still have something to learn from them?
With such questions, Horia gets to play From Harap Alb and, through the role of the protagonist, enters a story on the border between dream and reality. He embarks on an initiatory journey at the end of which he will acquire values such as: assuming responsibility, patience, generosity, courage, forgiveness. The show proposes a new formula for re-friending with local heroes who have crossed generations, but this new adaptation aims to reframe the poetry, humor and essence of Creangă's story, in the metric of today's adolescence, effervescent, impatient, curious and always in novelty seeking.
Although the essence of Creangă's story remains intact, the approach of a current language is the key to extracting exactly those values that today's youth can access as resources for personal development.
