Opera for barna: The Three Billy Goats Gruff

Description

About the performance: The three Billy Goats Gruff are heading up to the mountain pasture to fatten themselves up. On the way they must cross a bridge under which a big, ugly troll lives. The three Billy Goats Gruff use their singing voices to enchant the troll. Will they manage to get across the bridge to the pasture, or will the troll stop them? The performance is based on the beloved fairy tale The Three Billy Goats Gruff by Peter Christen Asbjørnsen and Jørgen Moe. It is both spoken and sung. Among other things, new Norwegian text has been set to well-known opera repertoire. Including: «Wie wie wie» from The Magic Flute and «In quegli anni» from Le Nozze di Figaro by Mozart, «Una voce poco fa» from The Barber of Seville by Rossini, «Quando men vo’» from La Bohème by Puccini, «Dich, Teure Halle» from Tannhäuser by Wagner, «Lippen Schweigen» from The Merry Widow by Lehár and «Forets Paisible» from Les Indes Galantes by Rameau. Performers Director: Ida Gudim, director Concept: Frida Augusta Gudim The smallest Billy Goat Gruff: Violetta Peschanskaya The middle Billy Goat Gruff: Frida Augusta Gudim The big Billy Goat Gruff: Solvi Skogstad The Troll: Øyvind Kleppe The performance lasts approx. 30 minutes.

If it is sold out on TicketCo you can get in touch by text message on the same day, as we sometimes get cancellations. Send a text message to 95 23 24 01. A lot of things cost money at the moment, so if there are any families who find it difficult to prioritise going to the opera right now, send us an email at info@operatilfolket.no and we have some free tickets up our sleeve. Address Gamle Raadhus Scene, Christiania torv 1 The orange house on your right when you stand with your back to the statue of HANSKEN on Christiania torv and look down Rådhusgaten towards the Opera. Right next to Rådhusgata 30. Instructions for ordering tickets When you have reached the TicketCo page, first choose the number of tickets, then press the yellow button that says «ORDER». Then press «CONTINUE». You now come to a very simple registration (register only one name for all the tickets, and you will save a lot of time). Finally you come to a payment page, where you need Bank-ID to pay. If for some reason you are unable to order tickets via TicketCo, you can send an email to: info@operatilfolket.no PublikUng PublikUng is an organisation that lowers the threshold for young people to go to opera and classical music concerts. The vision is to spread interest in these art forms and make them more accessible to those between 18 and 30. PublikUng now has just under 2000 members and it costs only kr 50,- to become a member. The only rule is that if you have received a free or very cheap ticket to a concert/performance, your registration is binding. You MUST then use your ticket. If you do not, unfortunately a fine may follow. There is always a long waiting list and someone else who wants to go in your place, if you cannot. So please let us know if you are not going to use your ticket after all. You can also give it to a friend.
