In Herr Tikk-Takk tar tiden* (Mr. Tick-Tock takes the time) by Theatre Spillebrikkene Mr. Tick-Tock sends his assistant, Rollex, to steal the stopwatch, the clock that stops the time in good moments.
Mr. Tick-Tock wants to take out Miss Time, and gives Rollex the assignment to send her back to time immemorial. Rollex has troubles, and they end up in the wrong eras. The question is whether Miss Time – in collaboration with the audience – can get Rollex to think better of it.
