Sea Costumes

Margit tried on some costumes for her Elisabet Flensberg story - maybe she was influenced by the cold weather outside?

We also found out that Iva's costume was inflatable...




Snow and Cold


It has been very cold here in Norway - last week it was -20 degrees and Elke went for the full winter look


As did I....


It was so cold that I cried and shouted with Margit when we sat in the van - our fingers hurt that much.

Rehearsals in Asker

We are working in the old trasformer house next to Asker Station and now the weather has turned very cold, today it was -10 outside.

We have been working on the music for the show, singing and playing some great songs from the sea.

Today we worked on the story of Sandsundvar - the island that sank into the sea.


We have also been trying out some ideas for the start of the show and finding ways to tell our own story, about the journey on the CMA-CGM Fort St Louis



We experimented with some ways to get Kieran very wet and miserable.


This is Sjon (the writer from Iceland) helping Kieran to explore the experience of an Atlantic storm...
