Celebrate 25 years of comedy with Espen and Rune as they premiere their new show, "Espen og Rune gjør seg til," featuring a mix of hilarious impersonations, sketches, and musical parodies.
In May, they celebrate their 25th anniversary as a duo with their fifth show. "Espen and Rune Are at It Again" will have its world premiere at Kilden.
Without giving too much away, it can be promised that the show will feature a wealth of impressions of living Norwegians, many new ones, and perhaps a couple of old favorites in new contexts – TV personalities, cultural figures, politicians, prominent members of the royal family, and a few well-known Southerners. It’s not just that Espen and Rune are at it again; they also take on the personas of others.
The show will also, like its predecessors, include large amounts of musical impressions and sketches about How We Live Now. Additionally, there’s a certain risk of hats and silliness. Espen and Rune have both impersonated just about every Norwegian politician who can stumble and walk, in NRK Radio’s legendary satire program Hallo i uken (The Culture Channel's second funniest program).
Pre-show dinner menu includes:
The show takes place at Kilden Theatre and Concert Hall at 19:00.
Dinner for Blue Zone ticket holders starts at 17:30. Ensure to check allergen information for the pre-show meal if applicable.
