The Hairy Girl - A Norwegian Fairy Tale with Taiko Drumming. Support act of Scandinavian folk music

Detaljer

The Hairy Girl by Kersti Stbi Directed by Abbi Patrix

Once upon a time there was a king and a queen who lived in a castle full of gold, diamonds and good food, but they didn't have any children... This is the very ordinary beginning to one of the wildest of Scandinavian fairy tales! The Hairy Girl thunders through the world on her goat, beats up troll hags, saves her sister from a grim destiny, and uses all her cunning to find a future for them both.

Kersti Stbi remixes this old tale with the power of Japanese Taiko drumming - music you can hear with your eyes, with its martial arts influences and dynamic use of the drummer's body.

Swedish storyteller Kersti Stbi has told stories across the globe and sung whilst flying over the audience as Prima Donna for Cirque du Soleils Tokyo show. As a founder member of internationally-influential company Fabula Storytelling, she created performances with Gvle Symphony Orchestra, folk music trio Nordic and Norrlands Opera. Recently she performed the Eddic Poem Volusp in Old Norse across Europe, with a grand finale hosted by the Crick Crack Club at the British Museum. Director Abbi Patrix Taiko Consultant John Bolwell
