A play about a cub that is different from the rest of his herd, he didn’t like to hunt or hurt any of the other animals. Shibel was a cub that liked eating fruits, befriending birds and playing peacefully unlike other members of his family that constantly disappointed his parents. The moral of the play is to accept people who are different around us and to help ones that have differences understand that they are allowed to be whoever they truly are within. A delightful act with lots of energy, beautiful costumes and an interactive Q&A round for kids after the show.
