On both Friday and Saturday, you can follow the Spanish theatre “XIRRIQUETUELA TEATRE” and their fascinating giraffes from Axel Torv to the Culture Centre.

”Giraffes”. Friday 10th. August, 3.30pm.  and Saturday, 11th. August, 11.45am.

The festival is supported by Næstved Kommune, Næstved Teater, Nordea and Næstved City. There is free admission to all of the performances as well as for this year’s new creation, “Faster Cool’s Cake Table”, where the local theatre’s own diva (alias Camille í Dali) invites both man and beast for coffee/juice and cake; accompanied by music played by Faster Cools Flødeskums-orkester (Auntie Cool and The Whipped Cream Orchestra), crazy waiters and other assorted surprises.

 

About the performances

”Crazy Coppers” DANSK RAKKERPAK (DK)

”Tutta in Valigia” (Everything in One Suitcase) LUIGI CIOTTA (IT)

Suitcases in suitcases in suitcases…objects that change the whole time, bringing new scenes to life. A wonderful mix of physical theatre, clownery and circus tricks.

 

”Girafes” XIRRIQUETUELA TEATRE (ES)

A wandering giraffe family roam the streets of the town. Playful creation of a dream-like, Savannah atmosphere.

”Life is Good” DANSK RAKKERPAK (DK/IT)

A comic tragedy about friendship told in a universal theatre language peppered in live music, slapstick, comedy and poetry.

 

”Deux Secondes” LA COMPAGNIE DU PETIT MONSIEUR (FR)

A small man in a much too small suit in an unfair fight with a self-erecting tent. Sidesplitting slapstick at full blast.

A comic satire on the beauty and medicine industry and its methods and modern times’ anxiety over the aging process.

 

”Cirkus Skunk” DAVID SKUNK (USA/DK)

A clown of real special quality, who in true showmanship, commands the stage with pocketsful of lovely tricks and the smell of the real circus!
