Folk i Fångenskap
How did the prisoner of war Caroline soldier live? How is a child killer created? What distinguishes a stater from a slave? Who were the prisoners in Sweden's various prisons?
Join us on a journey back in time and discover how Sweden's justice system has evolved since the 17th century to become today's correctional system. Through actual, documented destinies, the story emerges through the music. Thanks to shilling printing, fiddler books and recordings, the feelings of the people in the justice system live on long after their deaths.
Folk in captivity, by the trio Kviga, is a musical theater performance where you get to meet these people and their voices in narrative song and tunes.
Premiere in the spring of 2023!
