PIGEDYR

Tickets

The acclaimed novel Pigedyr by author Cecilie Lind, which turns Nabokovs classic Lolita upside down, is made into a music theatre performance in collaboration with the women’s choir UngKlang. With seven female voices on stage, we unveil every masked corner of the young, female mind in a boundless performance of untamed lyrics and music.

The young girl exists as a silent character everywhere; in literature, in commercials, on the catwalk, in porn, on TikTok, but in PIGEDYR the young girl speaks up. The performance starts when 13-year-old Sara starts dating her priest and ends when she at the age of 30 is no longer the young girl, but one of her spectators. PIGEDYR is the young girl’s attempt to escape, her power manifestation, confession, and service. The poster wall is replaced by the alter, the diary by the preaching, the mirror by the epiphany and the preacher by Sara, guiding us through her dream of eternal power gained by becoming the world’s most beautiful and thinnest girl. PIGEDYR explores the power inherent in the young girl and the power she is up against by examining the desire for the young girl which she herself is not even free of.

Weaved into the divine tones of UngKlang the young Sara is played by actress Laura Skjoldborg in a juicy and vulnerable meeting between literature, theatre and music.
