The Ugly Duckling

H.C. Andersen’s classic fairy tale is ripe with emotion and drama. It is a constantly relevant story about feeling like you don’t belong anywhere, about being bullied and scorned, and about ultimately finding yourself and where you belong. The story is told here as a touching, sad, funny and exciting, newly composed musical drama that spurs the imagination of young and old alike.

    Who will save Alfie Atkins?

    Alfie sits alone in the apartment where he lives and feels lonely. He has moved to a new place and doesn’t know any of the other children there. Sometimes his imaginary friend Malcolm appears, and when they play together, Alfons always gets to decide — like being the train driver when they play trains. The problem is that Mållgan never shows up when he is really needed, like when the “big boys” chase Alfons and spray his jacket with water pistols. A performance about friendship, based on Alfie Atkins, the beloved children’s book character created by Gunilla Bergström.
