"Lampio and the Grain of Light" is a production of the Stela Popescu Theatre, directed by Aurelian Horațiu Bîrcă and dramatized by Victoria Pătrașcu.

The show has been performed over a hundred times on the stage of the Stela Popescu Theatre.

It is more than just a performance – it is a journey of courage, determination, and self-discovery. The protagonist, a firefly who has lost his light, embarks on a magical adventure to regain his glow. Along the way, he learns essential lessons about confidence, perseverance, and vocation. "You can only shine when you truly do what you love" is the profound message of this performance.
