A colorful theatrical adventure: Deluge makes hearts tremble!
The children's play “Says the Whale to the Tuna” is currently being performed in Vienna, directed by Sara Ostertag and based on a work by Carsten Brandau. The plot follows the characters “You” and “I” as they live in a vibrant world and discover that they are much more to each other than just names. The production plays with the idea of identity and addresses the challenges of togetherness and individuality. However, the plot is interrupted by an unexpected event: a sudden rain that presents the two protagonists with major challenges. Captain Noe lands in his spaceship, but the rescue by his musician expedition proves to be problematic because the main characters have no musical talents. This is how the article describes it vienna.at the exciting and humorous twist in the story.
A dramatic earthquake in the theater
But the piece culminates in an even more dramatic speech: God decides to punish humanity for its musical deficiencies with a flood. The profound question of theodicy is also raised here: Why does God allow such suffering? Despite these heavy topics, the message for younger audiences is lightened up with catchy repetitions so that even children can understand the complex ideas.

Further performances of the play will take place from December 8th to 30th, 2024 and the first week of the new year, providing many families with the opportunity to experience an entertaining and profound performance.
