The Badger's Bad Mood Today

Puppet theater for big and little grumps based on a story by Moritz Petz

Theater Tearticolo: Puppet theater for ages 4 and up

"Darn!" thinks the badger when he wakes up one morning, "I'm really in a bad mood today." So it's no wonder that everything goes wrong for him, and the more he gets upset about it, the worse it gets. When you're in such a bad mood, it's better to stay home, but then he thinks: "No! What's the point of being in a bad mood if no one notices? Let everyone know!" So he stomps off to visit his neighbors: Madame Waschbär, who is trying on her new hats, Mister Hirsch, who is enjoying a nice cup of tea, and Hare and Mouse, who want to go fishing together.

But everywhere he appears and sulks, faces darken. While the badger has slowly grumbled all his anger off his chest, the animals in the forest are now all in a bad mood. Suddenly, no one wants anything to do with him anymore.

He slowly realizes: Now he has to come up with something, because: "Having a bad mood is not so bad, but causing a bad mood certainly is."
