Bertil is home alone again because his parents both had to go to work. Suddenly the boy hears small, tripping footsteps. It's Tom Tom Nils Karlsson, who actually wants to be called Nisse. He has just moved into a mouse hole in the wall of Bertil's room. Nisse tells Bertil a trick that will make him as small as he is. After overcoming the size difference and Bertil himself shrunk to thumb size, they spend the whole day together.

Astrid Lindgren's story about the little boy from the city who finds a new friend in his loneliness was developed as part of the cooperation between the Junge Opern Rhein-Ruhr and is imaginatively told and performed by the singer Annika Boos and the violinist Karin Nakayama
.

After the performance, there will be an opportunity for a follow-up discussion with those involved in the production. The production can be seen both at the Dortmund Opera and as a mobile production in Dortmund's kindergartens.

English

Bertil ist mal wieder alleine zu Hause, denn seine Eltern mussten beide zur Arbeit. Da hört der Junge plötzlich kleine, trippelnde Schritte. Es ist der Däumling Nils Karlsson, der eigentlich Nisse genannt werden möchte. Er hat gerade ein Mauseloch in der Wand von Bertils Zimmers bezogen. Nisse verrät Bertil einen Trick, mit dem er genauso klein werden kann wie er. Nachdem der Größenunterschied überwunden und Bertil selbst auf Daumengröße geschrumpft ist, verbringen sie den ganzen Tag miteinander.

Astrid Lindgrens Geschichte über den kleinen Jungen aus der Stadt, der in seiner Einsamkeit einen neuen Freund findet, wurde im Rahmen der Kooperation Junge Opern Rhein-Ruhr entwickelt und wird von der Sängerin Annika Boos sowie der Geigerin Karin Nakayama fantasievoll erzählt
und dargestellt.

Im Anschluss an die Vorstellung gibt es die Gelegenheit zu einem Nachgespräch mit den Beteiligten der Produktion. Die Inszenierung wird sowohl in der Oper Dortmund als auch als mobile Produktion in Kindergärten Dortmunds zu sehen sein.
