The Young Dark‘s electronic ensemble is a group of Icelandic and Swedish music students who have participated in a collaborative project of the Electronic Studio of Kópavogur Music School and the composition department of Luleå Tekniska Universitet in Piteå, Sweden, under the tuition of Haraldur Vignir Sveinsbjörnsson, Jesper Petersen, Ríkharður Friðriksson and Fredrik Högberg. The participants have a very variable background in different music fields and some of them have years long experience as music performers. After great workshops of collaboration both in Iceland and Sweden, the group’s electronic music has developed in a new and exciting way, so we can expect a highly interesting performance. The concert is sponsored by the Swedish-Icelandic Cooperation Fund, the Letterstedtska Fund, Tónlistarsjóður fund and the town of Kópavogur.

Splunkuný leikgerð af hinni vinsælu bók Gunnars Helgasonar um MÖMMU KLIKK! Varla þarf að kynnar Gunnar en hann er einn vinsælasti höfundur barnabóka á Íslandi og hafa t.a.m. kvikmynd og sjónvarpsþættir eftir bók hans Víti í Vestmanneyjum slegið í gegn.

MAMMA KLIKK fjallar um hina 12 ára gömlu Stellu sem á alveg snarklikkaða mömmu sem er óperusöngkona og er endalaust að koma Stellu í vandræðalegar aðstæður. Eftir sérstaklega vandræðalega uppákomu ákveður Stella að nú sé nóg komið og setur í gang plan til að gera mömmu sína venjulega. Á ýmsu gengur og margir koma við sögu eins og bræður hennar, þeir Siggi og Palli, pabbi hennar prófessorinn, Hanni granni og auðvitað Amma snobb.

A theatre show without words! Funny, playful and uplifting – for the big kids and the little kids. Two creatures come out of the shadows, find a bag of earth, they start to play and discover what life is all about. Life is perfect for the whole family to enjoy together! The youngest audiences enjoy watching the two figures on stage come alive, discover each other and the earth around them. They roll around with laughter as the two characters on stage, the boy and the girl or the man and the woman, taste the mud, play with it, create animals, lands, life and love out of the mud. But the older audiences read the same story on a different level, they read the history of earth, creation of Man, Darwin’s theory of evolution, how land is divided, borders made up, the cause of wars and how trough laughter and playfulness we can make peace and heal wounds. How everything starts from nothing – a story about the circle of life. “All the stars in the house!” G.S.E. Djoflaeyjan. “Four stars! Life is a beautiful show” MBL. “Original, funny and visually stunning for people of all ages” S. J. Frettabladid. […]
