Written about Knekke Greine

”Already from the start of the performance my fantasy starts to spin, a beautiful forest spirit lures us further and further into the wild. It tells the story about the communication between humans, trees and stones.”
-Audience post on facebook

“Stones awake and forest spirits make rope climbing art. With Knekke Greine, ’The North Mountain’ received enchanted life. In the performance the forest is alive in many ways. It gets dangerous and mysterious, as in childrens game and in folklore.” -Sundsvalls Tidning
