The text is a fable, combined with fairy tales about the almost impossible love between a cat and a thrush (enemies by nature), approaching in a light and fun way the difficulties encountered by the couple. The play was inspired by the dramaturgical work Romeo and Juliet, by William Shakespeare, and as a basis for research, the short stories by Hans Cristian Andersen and the Grim Brothers, in addition to the children's text by Jorge Amado O Gato Malhado e a Andorinha Sinhá. The book A Psicologia dos Contos de Fadas served as an interpretative basis, helping in the direction and scenic construction.
