Gunnar på Mo
“The show Gunnar på Mo is based on well-known and beloved revue songs from the 1930s to the 1970s. The audience meets Gunnar, a bachelor and wanderer inspired by Prøysen’s *Tango for Two*. He’s no stranger to a bit of flirting, but he takes his leave when he hears the chorus about rings and marriage. So what happens when farm girl Hilma and city girl Mari expose his double-dealing?
With humor, dance, and song, we take the audience on a nostalgic journey back to their own youth. And maybe the ladies in the audience will get a wink from Gunnar?”
