The much-loved Christmas calendar comes to the stage as a theatre production, staying true to the characters viewers know from the TV series. Three elves, Frits, Hansi and Günther, set off to an old elf cave in Jutland on a mission to find the key to the music box keeping the elf Gammel Nok alive. They carry with them the Great Book, which holds answers to almost everything, and it must not fall into the hands of the wicked Nåsåers.
Trouble arrives when a mysterious man named Benny knocks on the door of Oluf and Gertrud Sand, and he has sinister plans. Audiences can look forward to seeing Gertrud's big box of Christmas decorations again, along with the mistletoe. Gordon Kennedy, Jesper Lohmann and Christian Damsgaard take the stage as the familiar characters.
Gordon Kennedy is also performing The Julekalender at Tivoli - Glassalen on 12 and 13 November 2026, and a preview takes place there on 10 November.
