Astrid Lindgren’s immortal protagonist – Pippi will settle down on the “New Stage” in Batumi this New Year celebration period.

The original dramatization of the book is performed by the stage-director Manana Kvirkvelia

The only thing children in Batumi can do is to provide one piece of pea and pronounce Pippi’s magic incantation: “Little squiggle, you are clever, I don’t want to grew up ever!” 

And indeed, it is impossible to grow up with Pippi. New Year and Christmas becomes even more cheerful with her, and a mischievous childish beam will glitter in the eyes of the elders – parent or grandparents…   

Irakli Lomouri’s rhythmic riddles are used in the performances.
