Friday, November 30th, 2018The Boys in the Christmas tree house, by Andy Griffiths and Terry Denton, adapted to stage by director Birgit Amalie Nilsen, had it´s world premiere at Kilden Teater in Kristiansand. I had the costume-design for this wonderful, imaginative, absurd and silly show. With an abundance of quirky characters, there was preferably no limit to our […]
The boys in the Christmas-tree-house
Monday, April 30th, 2018Yet another exciting, upcoming project. This time I am the costume-designer: With 238 days till Christmas, I am sure you are continuously asking yourself: How do Andy and Terry celebrate Christmas in their Treehouse? Well – come to Kilden and find out! Andy Griffiths and Terry Denton are writing this brand new story for Kilden […]
Fish 2 Mars
Monday, April 30th, 2018Why “Fish to Mars” the metal science opera? Impact. Using two of Bergen’s specialties, marine science and metal music, to convey large themes about life and our place in it. Using opera to dramatize characters or points of view, on a sci-fi story so we can comment on real science without being dated. The […]
ONE FLEW OVER THE COOCKOO´S NEST
Friday, March 2nd, 2018Milos Forman´s famous film with Jack Nickolson in the lead is set in the 1950´s in a mental asylum. I recently read it was his settlement with the former communist leadership of his native country. The theatre-play is equally important and sharp in it´s critique, but filled with humor. Bømlo Teatre staged this production with an […]
THE JUNGLE BOOK /MOWGLI
Wednesday, February 21st, 2018Haugesund Teater´s version of the Jungle Book (or Mowgli) premiered last night. This version is slightly different from the original written by Rudyard Kipling. The animals grow more and more weary as Mowgli grows and gains more and more power and can control their fate. As humans have entered their forest and changes it with […]
Mowgli
Monday, January 8th, 2018Mowgli, or the Jungle-book, as it called in Norwegian, is Haugesund teatre´s big family-show this spring. I am in charge of props, and some of the really fun things have to be made by hand. Like the fishing rod and the hand-held fishing-net. I had a trip into the jungle in my back-yard and got […]
Creative meeting
Sunday, January 7th, 20182018 promises to be both busy and fun. The first creative meeting at Kilden Teater, where I am the costume-designer for “The boys in the Christmas-tree-hut” (loosely translated). It´s a family-show and the premiere is not until November. But you know how you can tell it´s going to be a great production, when the whole […]
Jesus Christ Superstar 2017
Thursday, October 26th, 2017Jesus Christ Superstar is currently running at Haugesund Teater. JCS is Andrew Lloyd Webber´s 1971 rock-opera about the last days of Jesus, seen from Judas´ viewpoint. The We´ve already had 11 shows, and only 4 are left. For this show I am working as the props-manager, but have also helped out with painting the set. […]
Peter Pan
Thursday, January 26th, 2017Haugesund Teater staged Peter Pan in January and February 2017. After seeing the show in Bømlo, they bought the whole set-design and expanded and altered the story a bit, and staged a fantastic version (if I may say so myself). Below are a lot of pictures from the show, probably too many, but I had […]
