Jaszak | Simone de Jong Company ²⁺

There is a man

In a coat

He is cold

He makes himself small

He wants to be something...

He is a mountain

And now a crab!

And yet a snail

He can do everything

In his pocket

Jaszak is a funny, heartwarming performance about a person without a roof in a changing world. Or is he changing himself? Inspired by the organization Sheltersuit, Simone de Jong Company creates a performance as a musical trip for children from 2 to 6 years old. A sequel to the performance Kluizelaar.
