  • A new children’s revue at Copenhagen’s Aveny-T theater is aimed at older children and explores political themes.
  • The performance moved Berlingske’s adult reviewer and prompted reflection on the relationship between theater and its audience.

Going to the theater is not only an encounter with art. It is also an encounter with the other people in the audience.

That is clear in “Børnerevyen” at Aveny-T, which takes the appealing idea of creating a revue for middle-school-aged children. The production is political and deeply moving, leaving Berlingske’s adult reviewer with plenty to think about.
