Show description

The musical Around the World aims to introduce children to the cultures of various countries around the world, primarily through different dance styles. Marko and Kristina decide to set off on a trip around the world during a summer vacation to see and even learn different dances and games. They travel by train, plane, ship, bus, and even by rocket, because they go to Mars to see how Martians dance.

During the show, children have the opportunity to learn some basic characteristics of different countries and cultures, and to see interesting dance styles such as classical ballet, flamenco, Indian and Chinese dances, African dances, musical theatre numbers, salsa, and finally our kolo (a traditional Serbian circle dance).
