Description

A two-troll clown show about friendship, scape(goat)ing and being misunderstood. Fed up with years of misrepresentation, villainisation and exclusion, two trolls find themselves in a theatre, ready and desperate to tell their side of the story and the truth about those three goats. Inspired by Scandinavian folklore, Troll is a heartwarming mash-up of music, storytelling, audience interaction, physical theatre, and clown. From the award-winning Oslo Fringe hit and 'hysterically funny' (Scenekunst.no) creators of Naughty Cabaret.
