After watching it, I think it is a performance suitable for parents and children to watch together. During the process, the performers will interact with the audience on the first floor. The content is interesting and even a bit noisy.

A very surprising performance. Although there are not many dialogues, the plot design is very interesting. There is no dull moment in 90 minutes. It is worth the ticket price.
