In the fairy tale exists straight line a
relationship between products of the feeding,
such as fruit, vegetables and herbs, and health
of the person
The witch Craterweiss comes to the market only
every seven years
The lady, Hanna, is always selling vegetables on
the market with her son beside her.
7

We have chosen humor as the main weapon to solve
the problem. Our play is full of jokes, music
and surprises.
The vegetables have come to punish Jacob. He is
one of their usual victims.
The witch serves Jacob a magic soup

Jacob does not know that seven years have gone by
and that the witch has turned him into a dwarf
with a very long nose. When he comes to his
mother, she throws him out.
Jacob is at a loss
The fruit and vegetables put their plan into
operation

Not knowing what to do Long Nose remembers his
cooking lessons and applies as a cook to the
duke of that land who loves delicacies as much
as the witch. He is tried and when he succeeds
in making a fine dish, hired.
Poor Hanna misses her son very much
Jacob buys a goose and discovers it is speaking
10
She is the daughter of a sorcerer who was cursed
by a rival of her father. Long nose and Mimmi,
the goose, become best friends. She helps him to
prepare a famous pate, called souzeren.
And, of course, happy end
Hanna is so pleased that she is ready to give
her fruit and vegetables away as gifts
