Thierry Tidrow (*1986)

A children’s opera for soprano und talking violinist
Libretto by Manfred Weiß after Astrid Lindgren


Bertil is once again alone at home: his parents are away at work. Suddenly he hears the pitter-patter of footsteps. It is the elf Nils Karlsson, also known as Nit, who has just moved into the mouse hole under the bed. The composer Thierry Tidrow wrote an imaginative children’s opera from Astrid Lindgren’s famous story.

A cooperation between the Theater Bonn, the Deutschen Oper am Rhein Düsseldorf Duisburg and the Theater Dortmund as part of the series Junge Opern Rhein-Ruhr.
