Trickster-p

Nettles

A truly amazing journey on the border between dream and reality

We receive, and we lose. This is a condition of life. In this moving performance about remembrance, love and sorrow, we recognize ourselves – and the thoughts we thought we were alone with. Artistic leader Bodil Alling says:

“I wish the whole world could see this performance. It is so wonderful and gripping.
If you have lost someone, if you are afraid of losing someone, then see this gift from Trickster-p. It is simply excellent.”

Nettles lets us relive the mystique of childhood and life – and consider the challenges that adulthood gives us in our search for meaning.


Tickets can be purchased for every 20 minutes within the playing time.

Nettles does one of the great things performing arts can do: Helps us to get to know our own soul.

Nettles gives us room for a reflection on life and death that the narrow horizons of everyday life do not offer us.
