Andersen's Stories

2006 TEV Austria


"He unveiled the face of Denmark; he not only spoke and wrote in the language of his country but in a language which was understood and reponded to everywhere in the world: the language of the human heart" (Victor Schmitz)

Lean back, enjoy tea and cookies, and embrace Andersen’s multi-layered world. True love, snappy skids, lots of humour and a unique use of language made the Danish poet who wrote 158 fairy tales world famous.
 

 

"Theatre of Eternal Values" plays with a fresh view on the timeless stories from our childhood. That his work was translated as closely as possible to its original is the achievement of the esteemed Dorthe Rose Svastha. Nine actors perform in the traditional method for Andersen's works -- quiet readings, interspersed with moments of joyful play. An enjoyable experience for adults and (not so small) children!
