My favorite story-teller group&amp;nbsp;the \u00d8fsti\/Vestre\/Haugland have had the premiere on \u201cSm\u00f8rbukk\u201d (Buttercup). A traditional Norwegian fairytale of a lazy boy who likes candy, manages to trick a two-headed troll a couple of times before he violently beheads it, steals all it\u00b4s gold and goes back to his mother for more candy. Not an obvious bed-time story perhaps, but then again Disney has removed a lot of drama and violence from the original fairytales in his adaptations. It\u00b4s only the past couple of generations that believe that fairytales are sweet and romantic and for children.<\/p>\n

The set and costumes for this show are all off-white. The lacy backdrop is a salvaged military-tanks winter-cover! The square textile cubes have quickly become a favorite of mine. They are so versatile! You can probably recognize them from my embroidered installation.<\/p>\n

The silk skirts are left-overs from another show I did years ago, and are in a high-quality natural silk. His trousers are original martial-arts pants from Japan (which he loved!)<\/p>\n
