Little Vampire Goes to School

Little Vampire Goes to School is the story of a little Vampire who lives with his big family in an old villa. Because he is very lonely, he wants to go to a human school. But there he is in for a surprise, as the human children sleep at
night. The living dead therefore organise a night school with the teacher the Captain of the Monsters. Despite
the ban, the little vampire completes an assignment in the notebook of Marcel, a day pupil. Through their shared notebook, Little Vampire and Marcel begin to correspond and eventually strike up a warm friendship. With a masterful blend of humour and tragedy and a clever switch between the creepy and the comical, the story cleverly raises themes such as loneliness, death, faith in God and the value of true friendship.

The young director Jernej Potočan has assembled an excellent trio of actors and created a warm and entertaining performance, distinguished by a heartfelt story, a noble message, good songs and convincing acting. To reach a higher level, the show needs a few
more grains of puppet magic, surprises and tricks, and above all, a little more playing with the puppet medium and its endless possibilities.
