This is some of the best I've seen at Kilden this year. Who would have thought that a children's show that lasted almost three hours would make me say "wow" loudly when the wolf came out, clap several times along the way, get enchanted and cheer loudly? They have managed to create a magical universe at all levels. The scenography, lighting and costume were almost worth the ticket alone. The music was catchy and versatile. Clearly with references to fairy tales and Norwegian folk music, mixed with a scary undertone. I got associations for the "Anastasia" movie of the 90s, with scary but catchy songs, and a humorous and nasty villain.
