Burobengens Orkester* (Burobengen’s Orchestra)
Viser for en skilling* (Songs for a coin)
Burobengens Orkester* (Burobengen’s Orchestra) produced by Teater Grimsborken consists of four tired men who travel relentlessly around at the end of an insufferably long tour with their repertoire of sad ballads. They share their own stories and personalities, but their innermost wish is to go home.
