Train Theatre
We Are Different
play
This play is an attempt to make sense of human life and show it as it is. However, the choice of narrators might seem a bit weird, as the story is told by animals. Fish, cats, and a dog will share their thoughts on the most important questions and, who knows, maybe you will recognise yourself in them after all.
