Havfruen

Havfruen

A contemporary circus performance of one of HC Andersen's most poignant and beloved stories, The Little Mermaid. Premiere: 2005.

  • In Cirkus Cirkör and Kaleidoskop’s interpretation, HC Andersen's story about the Little Mermaid is transformed into a tale of magic and profound feeling. The focus is on Andersen's poetic, disturbing and infinitely beautiful story of the mermaid's longing for the prince's love and for an immortal soul – the tale of elements that can never be reconciled.
