At Sæverud's enchanting paradise, the underworld will unveil itself with peculiar creatures which are usually impossible to catch a glimpse of. A mischievous wood nymph, elves, trolls, gnomes and even a shapeshifting water spirit can be found at Siljustøl, where composer Harald Sæverud built his mansion amidst the nature he loved so much. With Jan Holden in the lead, several actors and youngsters create mee- ting places for the audience and mystical creatures. With an adven- ture trail, a story tent, underground workshop and much more, everything is set for supernatural experiences and an exceptional Sunday outing for children of all ages.

Not really. Is he actually particularly good at anyt- hing? Well, he would really, really like to be. Abraham Arzate fantasises about world fame and is willing to do anything to make his dream come true. Never mind that he isn’t par- ticularily strong, smart or beautiful. He has one huge advantage – tons of confidence. In this clownish performance which has been performed in circus and street festivals in both Europe and Latin America, Abraham tries to convince the world that he has what it takes. His helpless attempts at stunts and tricks to which he has no skills become absurdly tragicomic. But you have to admire him for trying. Supported by Grieg Foundation and Kavli Trust Free admission A family performance with trolls beneath your feet. Two researchers in search of mine- rals make big discoveries on Mount Fløyen, and quickly make plans to dig out the entire mountain. However, their plan does not go unnoticed by the otherworldly creatures living underground and a number of myste- rious beings pop up and take action to save the future of their home. Enchanting folk music mixed with song and voice accompanies this new and exciting outdoor show for the whole family.
