Triggersystemet

With Bjørn Sundquist at the head of a unique ensemble, "Triggersystemet" by Tore Vagn Lid is one of the great theater experiences you must experience right now!

We meet Captain Noah, an aging scientist who has retreated into his own, fairytale-like universe. Here he tries to save himself and his little creatures from the contemporary flood of sin. Around him live stick insects, gnomes and snails – and it is precisely these who get the floor when the big questions are asked.

The stage space is nothing short of impressive. The maritime universe is constructed with love for detail, rigged like a sailboat, built of rope and wood. The cabins for the animals, yes, because here the main roles are played by living little insects, are so richly equipped that you almost want to move in. The brown snail's cave, complete with beer bottles and leaves from the underbelly of Norwegian flora and fauna, is a work of art in itself.
