Easter Moon Wish Sun for schools and kindergartens

February 20, 2023

Whoever gets to see the sun dance on Easter morning can make a wish!

Vesle-Live and Dad live far north in Svartdalen. Great-grandmother Gammel-Live lives in the farmhouse out in the yard. But one day something happens, and Vesle-Live gets an important assignment ...

Easter Moon Wishing Sun is a playful and beautiful performance for children aged 4-10, and in March, schools and kindergartens will be invited to the performance during the day.

Thea Borring Lande narrates and plays Vesle-Live, while Jo Berger Myhre sets the performance to music. With simple, high-quality effects, they tell a big, small story framed by the annual and life cycles of life and nature, on the children's terms. Marte Magnusdotter Solem has directed the performance with her wise eye - with lots of twinkle in her eye and love for people.

About the athletes:

Actress Thea Borring Lande has played major roles on several of the country's biggest stages, but what she loves most is playing in small rooms with just the right number of people in them. Because this is where we meet for real! She is passionate about giving the audience good theater experiences with room for both laughter and maybe a little tear in the corner of the eye.

Bassist and composer Jo Berger Myhre has for years played in bands with major artists in both pop music and jazz, such as Frida Ånnevik, Nils Petter Molvær and Ingrid Olava. As a theater musician, he fills the room and the story with sounds and melodies that make us listen even better.
