75 years ago, C.S. Lewis created a universe filled with excitement, fantasy and magic. Since then, Narnia has engaged millions of children and adults all over the world through books, TV series and films, and has become one of the great classics of our time.
Meet siblings Lucy, Edmund, Susan and Peter as they discover the way to the wonderland of Narnia. There, the evil Witch White rules in eternal snow and ice. Together with Aslan the lion and all the forces of good, the four children take up the fight against evil.
When director Hilde Brinchmann creates a theatre version of Narnia for the National Theatre, she lets us experience the story through the eyes of the children.
Brinchmann has had great success with "Mio, my Mio" and "Operation Theatre - Detective Agency No. 2".
Bring your children, family and friends and join us on an unforgettable journey to Narnia, where fantasy and reality merge in an enchanting theatre experience!
