Tuesday, April 30th, 2013A couple of pictures of Kristine dancing “The Camel”. A woman on the red carpet, striking poses. More and more strange poses. The powder pink color is chosen to give an association to vulnerability. The event is outside in the botanical garden in Bergen. Freezing cold, but with such high artistic quality it left us [...]

at the theatre
Friday, February 8th, 2013I´m working on a newly written youth-piece called “Kim leker” (Kim plays). It´s a DUS-project, which is a annual, national project where authors are challenged to write drama for youth. The best pieces are rewarded by being staged by dozens of youth-theatre groups all around the country. I am lucky enough to be working on [...]

Kardemommeby
Monday, July 2nd, 2012Exciting news! I´ve got another job for Bømlo Teater! This fall they are staging “Kardemommeby” (or “Cardamon city”) by Norwegian children´s author Torbjørn Egner. This year is Egner´s 100 year anniversary, and with that occasion, it´s time for this classic story, which I think all Norwegian children know. Egner also illustrated his book, so he was [...]

This is the day when all the outdoor Christmas-lights are lit in the streets in city-centers. Our local theatre has also made a special marking of the event in our little town for the past at least 20 year. This [...]

Wednesday, November 9th, 2011Today is the premiere of “The Monster Aunt”, a rock-opera written by the music teacher students at HSH. It´s based on a book by Ingelin Røssland. It´s a anti-happy-ending book. Pretty anti-happy throughout, with a young girl spending the summer at her farmer-aunt, while her parents are on holiday trying to figure out weather they [...]

Thursday, November 3rd, 2011Yes, you read right! Sexy cows. Costumes in the making. We´re having quite a bit of fun with the making of the udders. Using cotton velour with cotton filling, the udders are carefully pieced together, hand-stitched down, and sewn onto the dresses. Oh, yes, some sexy cows in the making here, for sure! The big [...]
