In Skyggebarnet, a grown daughter turns up unannounced at her parents' home, determined to talk about her childhood and the damage she believes it caused. The family sits down around the dinner table with decades of unspoken conflict, while she insists that everything must be brought into the open.
Written by new Danish playwrights, the production is a tense drama about two generations fighting over the truth, where adult children demand answers and parents discover that their children remember a very different life. The cast includes Ena Spottag Fog, Lotte Andersen, Dejan Cukic, Søs Egelind, Kimmie Liv Sennova and Hans Christian Lundgren. Rune David Grue directs, with scenography by Christian Friedländer and lighting by Christian Alkjær.
The show is also scheduled on other dates at Betty Nansen Teatret in January 2027, so there are several chances to see it.
