The Musical Theater Ambassadors, through the show "De-a Harap Alb", promotes Romanian culture and stories among the young audience. "De-a Harap Alb" is a show that brings Creangă's characters to the stage, in a modern vision, through the eyes of today's teenager. Using music, dance, and humor as the main instruments, we aim to familiarize the new generation of children with Creangă's universe, using references that are familiar to them.

The show begins with Horia, a teenager who, like any teenager, has disputes with his father on the subject of taking on responsibilities, and also argues with his best friend, Maria, who reproaches him for his selfishness and the fact that he always relies on her in solving school assignments - this time it's even about the Romanian fairy tale, a reference subject in Romanian Language and Literature.

But who needs such stories anymore today? Do we still have something to learn from them? With such questions, Horia ends up playing "Harap Alb" and, through the role of the protagonist, enters a story on the border between dream and reality. He embarks on an initiatory journey at the end of which he will acquire values such as: taking responsibility, patience, generosity, courage, forgiveness. The show proposes a new formula for befriending the native heroes who have intersected generations, but this new adaptation aims to reframe the poetry, humor and essence of Creangă's story, in the metric of the adolescence of our days, effervescent, impatient, curious and always in search of novelty.

Although the essence of Creangă's story remains intact, the approach of a current language is the key through which exactly those values ​​are extracted that young people today can access as resources for personal development.

Minimum recommended age: 5 years This show is a production of the Ambasadorii Musical Theater, the only theater for children and youth under the tutelage of the Ministry of Culture.
