Mungo Park brings a theatre piece about the Danish pharmaceutical giant Novo Nordisk to MusikTeatret Albertslund. Guldkalven mixes a love drama with a modern story of how the company grew from a discovery in 1923 into one of the world's largest businesses today.
The story follows a doctor couple, a life-threatening diabetes diagnosis and a researcher in Toronto who develops insulin, moving through a homemade kitchen laboratory and a great deal of determination. The cast is Henrik Prip, Marie Louise Wille, Ernesto Carbone and Sebastian Henry Aagaard-Williams, and Henrik Prip is also credited as the idea's originator.
The same production is also staged at Taastrup Teater & Musikhus on 10 December 2026.
