OH! A MATCH AFFORD HER WORLD OF COMFORT
If she only dared take a single one out of the bundle, draw it against the wall and warm her fingers by it... RITCH!
​
In the midst of misery, hardship and pain - hope emerges. Against all expectations.
​
'The Little Match Girl' is not only a sad story, but a joyous message of faith, hope and love. Almost a gospel. But above all a fairytale, and fairytales are life, and life must be lived... happily.
​
'The Little Match Girl' received the Danish theatre price Reumert of the Year in 2003.
"I wish I could invite everyone in the world to come and see Teatret Gruppe 38's 'The Little Match Girl'. It is true magic."
ÅRHUS STIFTSTIDENDE
​
"You wonder if it is Teatret gruppe 38 who makes different theatre or if it is the other ones who does it. 'The Little Match Girl' is undeniable true theatre."
