Finally, «Nororoca» in the Opera !

Nororoca was supposed to have been played at the Opera back in March 2020, but the performances were canceled when Norway shut down due to the pandemic. Now, one and a half years after the original date, the Oslo audience will finally see this explosive cultural exchange between Norway and Brazil.

Recently, the performance was performed at the venerable Théâtre National de Chaillot in Paris, where it was received well by the Parisian audience. Below you can see photos from these performances taken by photographer Laurent Philippe.

The performances at the Opera are on  2 – 5 December. Tickets can be found here.

In connection with the screening, there will also be a short Q&A session with artistic director Annabelle Bonnéry

The film will be shown December 2 & 3 at 18.30 – 19.15 and 4 December 17.30 – 18.15.
