Uncle Wolodja

Uncle Wolodja is a production by Jack and Joe Theatre.

The city falls asleep and dives down to the world of dreams, and we meet Uncle Wolodja. He lives alone with his own fantasies in which the day’s simple happenings become magic moments. Uncle Wolodja is extremely large and extremely small, a hero and a mouse. Like you and me.
