You must enjoy the fact that your tomcat is not an usual one, but a supernatural, ready to help his master to get rid of troubles. He wears boots and a knights costume, trying to look like a noble man, but wears long whiskers and has a typical mew.
Together with the millers youngest son disinherited by his brothers, they start a long journey, full of adventures. The end of the story? The millers youngest son marries the kings daughter and the cat becomes the most caressed cat in the world. Do you want to know how they got to success? Follow the story at Tandarica Animation Theater, in a show with various types of puppets, actors, and masks. Puss-in-Boots is known in hundreds of versions. The oldest versions come from Giovanni Francesco Straparola and Giambattista Basile.

Press on

„that new version expresses very subtile the hilarious events and fine irony the young man and his cat meet on their way. The puppets have inventivity and naturalness. The most intersting seems to me the ogre from the interpretation point of view, but also from the manner of construction".- Irina Budeanu, Rampa, September 26, 1996.
