December 13-- Advent at ADAFT 2015!

Today we turned out as a family to see a small theatrical production, Skovnissernes Jul.  A local company that specializes in participation-based theatre for small kids puts on a free Christmas show each year, and this year we were treated to "The Forest Elves' Christmas."

B and I agree that the clear highlight is the song "Og de gik" (and they walked) which the audience is requested to sing several times during the course of the 30 minute production.  Text is as follows:

Og de gik og de gik og de gik og de gik og de gik og de gik og de gik og de gik!

Even C got in on singing this one.  She, however, felt the best part was when the troll family hid in the elves' own home and nobody could see them.  (Actually a lot of the audience could see them, but C was astonished by what she believed to be their complete disappearance).
Here's a few photos of recent productions of this delightful show.
