Şeker Portakalı (My Sweet Orange Tree) Children's Theatre Play
The next performance will knock your feet off. Even though he is only five years old, Zeze, one of a very poor family's children, is a mischievous youngster with a highly developed imagination and intelligence. Zeze learned to read at a very young age because of his intense curiosity about his surroundings and desire to learn everything. He consequently earned his teacher's favor. A sweet-orange tree in the garden of the home where they recently moved starts speaking to Zeze. They later develop a close friendship. Zeze keeps up his bad behavior while dominating his teacher and those around him academically. One day, Zeze's mischief causes him to hurt his foot.
