Sukker Sirker 04

In short

In a time when the World Health Organisation (WHO) declares war on sugar, this play suggests that sweet dreams can never get sweet enough.
No useful learning, no pointed finger, and no morals. The smell of circus. Just the rare sweet dream and the incredibly wonderful tickling in the stomach when the circus comes to your town.

Two different newspapers gave the performance the highest score when it was shown at the International Theatre Festival and at the Culture and Music Festival in North Norway 2004.

Scrapbook

"a sugar sweet and visual experience of high artistic quality"
"sugar circus is a great and original idea, one which aided by outstanding scenography and lighting, becomes a complete sugar kick of the rare kind"
"beyond all sense indeed. If all adults could become temporary children."
Hege I. Hansen, Nordlys

"a performance that outclasses everything one relates to theatre"
"the performance is spectacular, energetic and colourful. Not one second of standstill, not one second is boring. The actors make a fantastic effort"
"what else can you do than bow your head and congratulate"
Bente-Lill Dankertsen, Harstad Tidende

"sugar sweet delight"
"sugar circus challenges nutritional experts and absorbs the youngest"
Lars Antonsen, Avisa Nordland

"The grade-one pupils just can't believe it. During school hours, they have gathered in the figurative stage to see theatre, and on the floor right before them sweets in all colours race by"

Bergen Tidende
