WHAT: Mina Vackra ögön is a dark and humorous performance based on Nina Hemmingssons’ cartoons and poems. There are three people and an entire orchestra on the stage. The performance deals with anxiety, loneliness, and impossible relationships: Somewhere in the room, a lonely person is looking for a reason, a place, love. By the bar, two women are armed with fragile hearts and Hemmingson’s witty lines, ready to take over the night. The performance was nominated for the Antonia-prize in Hangö Teaterträff -festival in 2013.
