A poor miller has three sons. When he dies, the eldest gets the mill and the middle son the donkey. The youngest gets the tomcat, which he immediately wants to turn into a pair of fur gloves. But the tomcat can talk and promises the miller‘s son a way out of poverty. He asks for a pair of boots and sets off to catch a sack of partridges for the king. The curious tomcat becomes the favourite of the court, is allowed to go in and out, and finally succeeds in defeating the great sorcerer of the land with a trick, making the miller‘s son an earl and finally king.
This Grimms’ tale is an entertaining classic and at the same time a story about rebellion and cleverness.
The realisation of this production will be supported by Ingenieurbüro Susann Schwarzenau.
