A bedtime story from Teatret Gruppe 38 and Carte Blanche.
Very freely adapted from Selma Lagerlöf.
Don’t go through the forest
robbers lie in wait and they will threaten your life
Nevertheless, the old monk and his young apprentice walk
into the forest on an icy winter’s day
for they have heard about a wonderful miracle
that is almost too good
not to be true.
Audience experiences this wonderful story, lying in hammocks under a luminous sky.
All This Coming and Going
Welcome to Teatret Gruppe 38’s greatest contribution to Aarhus 2017 – European Capital of Culture.
Welcome, both inside and outside.
Here are landscapes after a tsunami, Titanic on first class, a belly dancer luring sailors and landlubbers, a library without books, the last journey, heartbreaking tones, silent tears, shipwrecks and joyful cries.
Teatret Gruppe 38, Terrapin Puppet Theatre (TAS) and Swiss Trickster-p (CH) present the great theatre installation All This Coming and Going at Pier 3 in Aarhus’ new developed habour district, Aarhus Oe.
Inside and outside 10 large ship containers, mobiles, projections, shadows and moving pictures will depict what was – and what is to come.
During 2018-19, Teatret Gruppe 38 moves into a new theatre building at Aarhus Oe that is part of the construction project AARhus at Pier 4, Aarhus Oe. With this great theatre installation by Pier 3 at the the waterfront, we invite the audience to experience how a new city district comes alive when art moves in.

A Story of A House That Turned into A Dot
A story about how long the road home is, when anger has made you run away.
She became so hopping mad She became so fizzling furious She became so livid with rage that she opened the window and climbed down the ladder and then she ran.
She ran and ran and ran And ranranran And she ran there and she ran around And ran over and ran under And ran down down down down down And ran upupupupup And ran forward and ran along And ran of of of And when she turned The house had turned into a dot
On an Italian pick up truck, a live chicken and a newly laid egg play the main part in a gripping version of an old story. A Grimm story of a child, who is burdened with too much responsibilty:
“You must walk alone through the forest, which is huge, wild and creepy. And on the other side is grandmother´s house, where grandmother lies in her bed,very ill and that is creepy too.”
Bon voyage!
