Astrid Lindgren’s beloved fairytale about courage, sibling love, battling against evil and about death. Theatre for children on a grand scale.
/
Karl is frail and afraid because he knows he will soon die. His brother Jonathan tells him about the land of Nangijala, where you are spirited off before leaving this world. It is a place of campfires and storytelling. The source of all adventures, in fact. But there are also adventures that should never take place. The two boys are united in Nangijala as the Brothers Lionheart and fight for freedom in Thorn Rose Valley, one of Nangijala’s two valleys, which is occupied by evil Tengil.
