Author: Maria Papayanni
Illustrated by Michael Kountouris

Day and night Romeo hears his daddy and mammy talking about theatre. Besides, it is their home, a warm mouse-hole at the theatre stage. However, little Romeo has never seen a real play because his parents are afraid and tell him to wait until he grows up. Ath the dawn of his birthday, and while he looks forward to his parent’s gift, he can’t sleep and dreams away… And then something unexpected happened, just like in the theatre… Romeo gets to meet the Strange Manager, the Third Bell, the Light, the Director, the Stage Scenery and the Costumes. At the same time, his new friends inform him that in the cloakroom live many mice. As he starts looking for them, Romeo is not aware that he is about to get into a great adventure. Because in the cloakroom lurks the Chief Cat. Will he manage to save pretty Julia from his claws?
