"The award-winning and courageous author Gro Dahle writes authentically, truthfully and life-savingly for children. Being able to create theatre from the book ‹Dragen› is entirely in line with Tigerstadsteatret's vision that all children should experience theatre that can mean something to them, for the rest of their lives. That Turnéteatret in Trøndelag shows such a strong will to focus on the most important audience is inspiring and a strong motivation for a collaboration," says theatre director Wenche Viktorsdatter Paulsen at Tigerstadsteatret.
"Tigerstatsteatret is one of the country's leading creators of theater for children and young people. They take children seriously, and at the same time create magical theater experiences. Through collaboration with Tigerstatsteatret and Den Kulturelle Skolesekken in Trøndelag, we know that the performance will have a long life and reach children both in Trøndelag and in Oslo ," says theater director Nora Evensen at Turnéteatret.
