The Cotton Girl
A modern play for children written in the spirit of Kazakh folk tales. The story begins when Makta Kyz (the Cotton Girl) comes from the city to visit her grandparents in the village and gets to know rural life.
How will the village, with its simple yet soulful rhythm, welcome a spoiled girl who has grown accustomed to the comforts of city life?
What secret lies in a village where animals can talk?
And could the «smartphone», that familiar «friend» of many, have a purpose beyond social media?
This lively and melodic fairy tale, filled with lessons about friendship and unity, has much to share with its young audience!
