Musical show “Chipollino’s New Year Adventures”

On 20 December at 15:00, the show “Chipollino’s New Year Adventures” will take place at Daugavpils Kultūras pils. This is an exciting musical about a brave little boy, Onion, who joins his friends to restore justice in a fairy-tale kingdom of fruits and vegetables. The story is based on Gianni Rodari’s “The Adventures of Chipollino”, familiar since childhood, and comes to life on stage in a new version: an incredible, colourful show for the whole family, performed by the Latvian Cultural and Entertainment Association “Kolizejs”. Chipollino and his friends will face many trials and discover the remarkable truth that neither power nor money can replace richness of spirit, and happiness cannot be forbidden. This heartwarming and instructive story will captivate children and adults alike with original songs, colourful costumes, interactive games with the audience and New Year’s magic. No New Year’s Eve would be complete without Father Christmas, who will hurry to help the fairy-tale characters if they call for him. The musical accompaniment will be performed by outstanding Latvian actor, songwriter and musician Gidons Grinbergs, who will play Professor Pear and demonstrate captivating technique and a deeply emotional performance as a violinist. The show features well-known actors familiar to children and adults alike: Sergejs Dobrotvorskis, Antons Patlins, Andrejs Mošāns, Darja Kravcova and others.
