Life is a constant search for happiness and one's destiny. The belief that our life will be better when we become someone else can poison the thoughts of people of all ages.
The inconspicuous Poppy Seed feels the same way. He decides to run away from a molecular cuisine competition, where the Cook and the Scientist plan to add it to the "perfect poppy seed cake". The Seed feels that this is not his destiny, so he sets off on a journey in search of his own happiness. The Scientist and the Cook set off in pursuit of him, wanting to catch the fugitive - they hope that thanks to him the poppy seed cake will be perfect.
During his journey, the Poppy Seed meets characters from whom he learns a lot, although sometimes these short life lessons are not easy. Trials, failures, discovering new people, phenomena and places are part of life, which is why the play will be a good opportunity to get used to new states, because such experiences make us learn something new about ourselves.
"I Am a Poppy Seed" is a funny and adventurous play for children about self-acceptance. Even if the audience is still very young and a bit lost in the world - this play motivates and gives hope, showing that there is strength and potential in each of us. It tells us that instead of trying to be someone else, it is worth being yourself and enjoying the little things!
We encourage you to watch the play, which in its form is derived from molecular cuisine and will certainly attract and stimulate every viewer sensorially.
