Swedish theatre group Boulevardteatern presents the enchanting story of Guji Guji.
The story begins with a crocodileegg that lands in a ducks´nest.
Out pops Guji Guji- a small crocodile that becomes raised as a duck.
Mother Duck doesn´t care that Guji is different from the other young ones.
They are her children and she loves them all, just the way they are.
Problems arise when Guji Guji meets two big crocodiles.
They declare that Guji is a bloodthirsty duck-eating crocodile – just like them!
Guji Guji is a tale about differences and similarities, love, friendship and thinking for yourself.
