Dramatic text

The Hen, the Egg and the Fox

The Hen finally lays an egg. She gets up for a moment and suddenly the egg is gone! In the nest is the Fox. The Hen and the Fox then embark on an adventurous hunt for the egg.

Høna, egget og reven (The Hen, the Egg and the Fox) is a slapstick text about adversity, belonging and friendship, and about children who turn out differently from what their parents imagined. A tribute to imperfect life.
