Aunts on the Run

Selma is searching for her late husband. Elsa longs for her new boyfriend. Despite their differences, they form an unexpected alliance and escape for a day from the nursing home - into an adventure neither of them could have imagined.

Aunties on the Run is a humorous and imaginative performance in which classic tales by H. C. Andersen, Elsa Beskow, and Selma Lagerlöf are woven into the story. Two heroines who refuse to let life grow stiff, and who despite age, sorrows, and longing do not abandon their dream of something more.

Behind the work and on stage are Mette Marqvardsen and Debbie Z Rennie, known from Riksteatern Crea's earlier productions. Direction: Lars Otterstedt & Mindy Drapsa. Makeup and costumes: Anna Olofson & Lars Otterstedt. Voice performer: Kristina Snow.

The performance is in Swedish sign language and interpreted into spoken Swedish. For children and adults from age 6. Running time: 1 hour.
