Hamsun..s Fever

Hamsun..s Fever is a contemporary art project which combines theater, architecture, fine arts, music and new circus.

Premiere is 7th of may at  Hologaland Teater, Tromsoe, Norway. The play will run all through may month with two shows per night.

The theater play is based on the norwegian author Knut Hamsun-s poem "Feberdigte" from 1904 and is an sensual, musical and visual journey. It tells the story of a man falling apart. A man who has lost the one he loves og fights with his own grief and jeu de vivre.

Anneli Drecker plays the women in the poem, "Alvilde".

Anneli has also composed the music together with Geir Jenssen (Biosphere) and it is the first time since Geir left the group Bel Canto, in 1990, that the two of them work together again. Rumors have it that the music is extraordinaire! 

With;

Kristian Fr. Figenschow- the man Hamsun

Anneli Drecker- Alvilde

Jon Tombre- director

...and four actors and four acrobats and lots of music and smoke and light and 60 dog sculptures...
