Karlsson-on-the-Roof
Karlsson is a very short and stocky man who is quite confident about his abilities. He lives in a small house hidden behind a chimney on the roof of a very ordinary
apartment building, on a very ordinary street in Stockholm. When Karlsson pushes a button on his stomach, it starts a clever little motor with the propeller on his back allowing him to fly.
Karlsson is the best at everything, at least according to him. But there is, in fact, one thing at which he excels: being a playmate to a young boy.
This unique fairy tale has a birthday boy, a birthday cake with candles and fun birthday party entertainment. Eric, the main character, will celebrate his birthday, on stage, during the show.
Karlsson (Swedish: Karlssonpåtaket) is a fictional character in a series of children's books created by Swedish author Astrid Lindgren.
The cartoon adaptation became popular in the USSR with its release in the 1970s. To this day, the adaptations are still celebrated as
an integral part of the Russian cartoon industry, with Karlsson being recognised as a national icon, together with Cheburashka and other
such characters.
