The Women in Peer Gynt

Solistenensemble Kaleidoskop2020

What if we listened to some of the seldom heard characters from Peer Gynt? What if we silenced Peer and put ‘another’ Norwegian voice centre stage? What if we came up with a surprise response to Henrik Ibsen’s classic and presented an ‘alternative Peer Gynt‘? The Solistenensemble Kaleidoskop searches for fresh responses to the themes of this literary masterpiece, answers that enter into a dialogue with excerpts from the original.
