Part of a review: ”…Already from the very first minutes of Seven beds of a little dormouse the discreet and in the same time consistent dramaturgic strategy can be seen. It, thanks to the modesty of expressive tools, opens space for afterthoughts on fudamental social mechanisms: fear, need of proximity and inclusion. The performance, using simplicity of form, avoids didacticism and builds an universal message. It also makes possible to understand the play in various ways. Not only children are involved, but also adult spectators confronted with the experience of isolation and incomprehension.” Wiesław Kowalski, Teatr dla wszystkich
