Theater of Nations and independent Theater Company TVO9
premiere on 6 of December 2020

An interactive solo-performance about big Melkerson family and one summer of their life that happened to be in an old summer house on Saltcrow Island. The actress tells the story and plays all the characters, the musician plays on instruments that can be found in the attic in an old country house. That is where all props and decorations also came from: boxes, wheels, forgotten children’s instruments, an old slide projector and recorder with reels and so on. The project is a continuation of "Theatre Readings" that started with Dickens's "Christmas carol in prose".
