Momsen in the production En umulig jul* (An impossible Christmas) by Theatre Spillebrikkene sends her two helpers, the Gvarvs, to the home of Julie. Julie’s mother can’t stand any more of Christmas, and her father is always on the phone. So there is a real need for help here.

The Gvarvs have to finish prior to Christmas Eve, or Momsen has threatened to remove their magical noses. The problem is just that they have never decorated a house for Christmas, so they really need help from the audience – both to save the Christmas for Julie and to save their noses.

En umulig jul is an untraditional Christmas story from Theatre Spillebrikkene, discussing Christmas traditions, stress, nagging and Christmas celebrations.
