Based on the novel by Norwegian author Tarjei Vesaas, which won the first Nordic Council Literature Prize awarded to a Norwegian writer, this theatre production follows two girls, Siss and Unn. Siss belongs to the close-knit flock in a small village, but when the orphaned Unn arrives, everything changes. The two form a bond that they hope will last forever, a friendship where each has someone to confide in completely.
Drawn by the shimmering ice castle on the frozen lake, with its alluring and frightening abyss, Unn goes towards something stranger than any fairy tale. The story explores the magic of life, and the pull of the unknown.
The performance is at Republique in Copenhagen and is suitable for all audiences. The same author's novel Fuglene was previously staged by REVOLVER, where it sold out twice in 2025.
