Children’s play “Jäpe and Tibu’s crystal cup”

One town has won the coveted crystal cup, a prize for flawless order and a complete absence of crime. Peace reigns in the town and its residents are convinced that they live in the safest place in the world. But one day something unexpected happens: the crystal cup is stolen.

Fear and suspicion creep through the town. Is a serial thief lurking behind the calm facade? Is the town no longer what it was thought to be?

Tibu, an artist, musician and self-appointed private detective, sets out to investigate the case. Alongside Tibu, his pupil Jäpe, who comes from Missomassomaa, begins work. Together they set out to follow the clues, diving into the hidden layers of the town and the secrets of its residents.

Will Tibu and Jäpe manage to catch the thief? Can the culprit really be someone from among their own people?

Through exciting twists and humorous moments, the production takes the audience on a journey in which important questions arise: what is truly important in life? Is it money, friendship, family, respect or love?

The answers will be revealed in the theatre.
