Impressions of Musical
We had a lot of fun during preparations although it was hard work and stressful too.
Before musical started, we produced the sock puppets ourselves using wool, old socks and recycling materials.
Learning the English text was quite tricky, because English is our secondary language.
Learning the lyrics of the project's anthem in all languages (English, German, Croatian, Slovenian, Frensh and Catalan) has been a big challenge, but it was very cool! We will never forget the melody and the song!
There were also many rehearsals, including an online rehearsal with the Croatian actors and participants.
Our hard work was definitely worth it and the result is/was impressive!
