Following a shipwreck, a young doctor arrives in the Land of Lilliput, an island inhabited by small beings. They are initially frightened by the height of the stranger and bind him tightly. Gulliver is disoriented, but adapts quickly. He initially befriends two palace servants, then even the king and queen of the land. Unfortunately, however, he won’t be able to stay with them forever, as he wants to return home to England. In the meantime, however, he helps them restore peace with their neighbors from the other shore.
The show thus captures part of the journey of the character Gulliver, a simple man, perceived as a giant by the Lilliputians. The situations are unexpected, hilarious and, at the same time, moralizing.
