The Bulgarian Cultural Institute London is pleased to invite you to a Christmas performance of the puppet play for children “Slow Story”, performed by Nikoleta Stefanova, with author Magda Borisova and stage adaptation by Tanya Evtimova.

To support the magnificent artists, admission is requested for visitors to the event – suggested donation of £5.

In the Christmas spirit, there will be a guessing game after the performance, whoever wins will receive a knitted toy featuring a character from the show as a gift.

“Slow Story” follows the adventures of Moody the snail, who is the slowest snail in the whole forest. Despite the taunts of others, Moody outsmarts everyone by using his wits – helping animals in distress, saving them from danger, anticipating unexpected situations and cunningly extricating himself and others from unwanted situations.

In the end, everyone learns that the mind can be more than physical strength, and that Moody is a true, loyal friend.

The final words of the show sum it up, “Think, think, think man, for thought goes a long way!”
