Titta en älg
The Royal Dramatic Theatre
Liver pâté and death. Middle age and the abyss. Kristina Lugn’s *Titta en älg* is about women who have restrained themselves, sought refuge in marriage and public health authorities, adapted to self-dissolution, and now stand on a platform wondering who they are and where to go. But we also meet women who have let loose, who have gone wild, who laugh a little too loudly.
Mellika Melouani Melani’s production is a tribute to the eccentric, profound, absurdly funny, and completely unique playwright Kristina Lugn, where the play *Titta en älg* is haunted by scenes, characters, poems, and quotes from other works by Lugn.
