The play is a combination of a fairy tale by the Brothers Grimm and a popular story in Vietnam. This is the second joint-effort of the noted director. Last year, they worked on The Caucasian Chalk Circle by German playwright Bertolt Brecht. The play also utilizes audio clips, allowing the audience to hear voices of Vietnamese and German children. The Fisherman and a Golden Fish play is to be performed at the Youth Theatre, 11 Ngo Thi Nham street, on November 28 and 29. Free tickets are available at the theatre and the Goethe Institute, 56-58 Nguyen Thai Hoc street, beginning November 23.

A German and Vietnamese language version of the play will be performed in April next year with the puppeteers from Dresden.-
