Piip and Tuut Theatre "Shoe nr 39" / NAKS Festival

Children’s novel King Nr 39 (Shoe Nr 39) by Jaanus Vaiksoo has been awarded with a title Good Children’s Book 2019 and it has also earned an annual award by Cultural Endowment of Estonia.

5th Grade student Paul Viies decides to skip school one day and this leads to an adventure that he couldn’t even dream of. He meets a rather motley crew: suspicious Kingamees (Shoeman), gorgeous Jekaterina, funny and kind-hearted Artur with his daughter Minna Riin, who becomes Paul’s best friend. There is excitement, fun, mysteries and love…

This play is about dreams coming true, braveness to express one’s own feelings and thoughts, about loneliness and friendships, and little bit about bullying.
