We're back ready to bring you real Nirvana magic with an authentic remake of the legendary MTV concert, which was played on November 18, 1993 and released as an album in 1994, with a concert remake from start to finish.
It's been 30 years since Kurt Cobain and Nirvana performed one of the most legendary unplugged concerts of all time on MTV. The concert album, which was released on November 1, 1994, quickly climbed the sales charts around the world and was #1 in the US and UK, among others.
At the concert, the audience expected to hear the super hit "Smells Like Teen Spirit". They didn't get that, but instead they heard cover songs by David Bowie, The Vaselines and Huddie Ledbetter (Leadbelly) - and of course a whole bunch of Nirvana songs. The Meat Puppets were also guest artists at the concert, and three songs from their album "Meat Puppets II" were played.
The stage was "decorated" with flowers and candles, at the request of frontman Kurt Cobain. Cobain reportedly wanted it to look like a funeral.
We are recreating the magical evening with a band consisting of
Hans Inge Rosland, guitar
Lars Songe, guitar
Juan Gomez, bass
Mats Engkvist, drums
Kent Nilssen, vocals
Tickets NOK 250 can be purchased in advance at vipps no. 687525 (mark: nirvana), or at the door.

CHANGES part 3
How thin, long and difficult is it possible to turn wood? Vidar Iversen shows, through his objects and sculptures in wood, that little is impossible when he uncompromisingly follows an idea - and at the same time masters the craft. The exhibition opens at the same time as the Wooden Boat Festival, and makes Galleri Kunstparken even more relevant for wood lovers.

If safety is not found at home or out there, where do you go?
"Word for blood" is a true story, an inside report from the little sister of Sweden's most dangerous gang leader. It is a painful and honest story about being human and female and ending up in the middle of a deadly gang showdown - in a world where adults are not present. Faysa's closest friends and family members are on opposite sides of the gang war. She no longer has a record of how many she has lost. Now she tells her story.
The National Theatre and the Norwegian Theatre are creating a play based on Faysa Idle's hotly-anticipated book, "A Word for Blood". Her story concerns us all, regardless of who we are or where we live. Perhaps Faysa's story can open up conversations about how we can create a society where we take better care of each other?
--Said about the book:
"Faysa Idle tells her story powerfully and honestly
Business News
"A story that tears at the heart and gives you chills"
Gyldendal Norwegian Publishing House
--Performance length: 1 hour 20 minutes (no intermission).
