Livingstones Kabinet brings Selma Lagerlöf's novel "The Emperor of Portugallia" to the stage in a freely adapted puppet theatre production for grown-ups. The story is told as an animated performance, with newly composed live music, and it explores fatherly love and madness.
The production moves freely between the realistic and the fantastical, and four male performers share the stage in a contemporary staging. Troels Kortegaard Ullerup, Pete Livingstone and Bo Carlsson are named among the cast.
Troels Kortegaard Ullerup also has further performances of Kejserinden at Bådteatret in November, so there is a chance to see the production more than once.
