Kasperle and a group of his puppet friends prepare for his grandmother's birthday-but a little green devil threatens to intervene. He steals the donuts for Kasperle's grandmother, and the other puppets chase him to get them back: through the village, over water, and even into the sky. By the end of the chase, the devil has eaten all the donuts. Luckily Grandmother had plans of her own. And as his punishment, the little devil ends up with a terrible stomachache! There is little speaking in this cartoon, and none of it is necessary for comprehension. Ideal for use in the beginning language classroom, Alarm im Kasperletheater is short and full of action to prompt discussion.
