Attendees who witness this theatrical storytelling program will be exposed to the history and cultural heritage of the Tomte and the Troll. The stories of these mythical creatures are a part of Scandinavian tradition and are a perfect fit for Syttende Mai!
Attendee comments include: "It was fun to see history walking around and interacting. Very informative and fun!" "Very pleasant and personable. I enjoyed their storytelling and bits of Norwegian history - 'Touch this hat for good luck all year'" "They changed my attitude about Trolls. Now I will be happy to see them in the dark. I will greet them instead of running away as in the past." "Wow! Great job in bringing talent to Milan's special day of celebration."
