Paul Gallico – Péter Horváth

Jennie, or I Was a Cat in London

Peter is a lonely boy. He wants a pet cat dearly, but he is not allowed to keep one at home. Jenny is a street feline. She hates humans. Peter and Jennie meet amidst magical circumstances. Their true friendship helps them to better understand each other and themselves. The adaptation of Paul Gallico’s bestselling novel, Jennie invites the audience to witness the unfolding of throat tightening emotions, gripping adventures, and a truly fabulous story retold through a lovely musical for children.
