With the help of 5 chairs, an overhead projector and a playing wii controller, a handful of Kim Fupz Aakeson’s best stories are presented:
“The Naughtiest Boy in the World”, “King Gulleroth”, “Mr. Wilder’s Star”, “Mother” and “The Girl Who Remembered It All”.
Stories – which in true Fupz style – twist and turn the whole thing upside down, so that you risk becoming completely free above the bulb…
“…beautiful and gifted entertainment… Theater Patrasket transforms five small Kim Fupz Aakeson stories into a fine frieze of theatre, delivered with a lovely physical acting by Thomas Danielsen and Maria Myrgård, which brings the text’s clever calories to life, so that we are amused and get food for thought.”
