ern, an independent theatre group based in Malmö, creates productions for young audiences based on physical theatre traditions such as mime, physical comedy and mask play. Expressteatern 2015 celebrates its 25th anniversary in Malmö and has four productions for international touring. The mime adventure “The Secret of Winter” tells the story of the Snow Queen who because of love for her daughter conjures the coldest winter of all times. “The Pool” is like a live silent movie performed outdoors. Abstract shapes come to life with the help of the actors’ body language and the children’s imagination in the mask play “Scribble”. “Did I Really?” is an interactive mime play in English performed in classrooms, about the evil Mr X, who, disguised as the school janitor, steals the emotions of the children.
