The little green Dragon Tabaluga is a Puppet character, who lives in the fictional place Greenland. He is around 100 dragon-years old (70,000 human years, as one year for a dragon is 700 for a human). He is the creation of a German Rock musician, Peter Maffay, children's song writer Rolf Zuckowski and the author Gregor Rottschalk. The artist Helme Heine gave Tabaluga his appearance.
The musical "Tabaluga & Lilli" celebrated its premiere on 24 September 1999 in the TheatrO CentrO, Oberhausen, and ran there until 30 June 2001. The little dragon amongst other things, managed to unite the High Society of German musical actors, with stars such as Andreas Bieber, Ross Antony, Paul Kribbe and Carolin Fortenbacher.
The First studio album "Tabaluga or the journey to reason." (1983) was the step to success: there followed in the course of the years some Helme Heine books, four Studio albums, a resounding tour and many TV Cartoons, which are Broadcast in over 100 countries round the world. Over 100 kindergartens and child care groups carry the word "Tabaluga" in their names.
Flying Bark Animation (previously known as Yoram Gross Films) has also produced an animated cartoon series of Tabaluga. In this series, Tabaluga is the last of the dragons and the crown-prince of Greenland, a magical place inhabitated by talking animals of many different species. Tabaluga must defend his home from two rival kingdoms on either side of Greenland; a frigid arctic tundra, ruled by the evil snowman Arktos and a searing desert, ruled by an evil sand-spirit named Humsin.
