Nils Holgersson's Wonderful Journey

Description

A prank throws Nils' world out of balance – and suddenly a journey between heaven and earth begins. Suddenly the wind speaks louder than his own thoughts. The animals have voices. And from the solid ground beneath his feet becomes the open sky. On the back of the gander Martin, Nils takes off – into a world bigger than his courage. Led by the wise Akka of Kebnekajse, the flock of wild geese flies over vast landscapes. But dangers lurk: the cunning fox Smirre follows their every move. Between storm and silence, trust and threat, something grows in Nils that he did not know before – responsibility. And the quiet suspicion that you only understand the world if you are willing to see it differently. anda Kids presents this Swiss premiere as a musical-poetic family theater in dialect. Director Stefan Camenzind tells Selma Lagerlöf's world-famous story in a modern, visually striking production.
