Kvitebjørn Kong Valomon

  • Director: Ingrid Weme Nilsen
  • Theatre: The Norwegian Theatre

There was once a play that was so beautiful, that it could enchant even the most exams focused theater groups. For the Norwegian folktale about the enchanted prince Valemon was so well communicated, that even princess Martha Louise in top form could not have done better.

East of Spikersuppa and west of Edderkoppen, in The Norwegian Theatre, stomped a great white bear out on the stage in front of the audience. So realistic was the bear that the kids in the audience gaped in admiration, and were confident that it was real. Spellbound was also the audience's adults, for director Ingrid Weme Nilsen had supernatural magic, with smart moves and beautiful stage design. The wild forests, beautiful landscapes and seemingly flying kitchen articles, enchanted the audience into the fantasy world.

The play lasted longer than long, but was not too long. Thanks to the director's helpers, who interpreted the roles so both adults and children found joy in them. The story painted the playful, the sweet little girl who was going to save the prince, so he did not have to marry the nasty, horny witch. Like the sun and the moon was the contrast between the beautiful girl and the nasty witch, who both deserved reward from the king for their acting.

So the play's journey end, and as in most fairy tales the good won and evil was punished. And just like the heroes of the fairy tales, the forces behind Kvitebjørn Kong Valomon really deserved their salaries and their applause. And so the tale ends.
