Burr is looking for a home - and a friend
Christoffer Mellgren’s play Can I Live with You? (Får jag bo hos dig/ Saanko muuttaa luoksesi?) tells the story of Burr, a curious little creature searching for a place to call home. It shouldn’t be that hard. Anything could be a home: bird nests, anthills, cars, trees. But it can’t be too big, and it can’t be too small. It needs a roof to keep out the rain, and walls to hold up the roof. A door would be nice—so there’s something to knock on. And a friend who opens the door… or someone Burr can open it for.
Can I Live with You? combines a simple story with playful rhymes, rhythms, and movement in a short, twenty-minute theatre experience for the very youngest audiences.
