SYNOPSIS: 

The Letter is already a classic comic performance created in 1992 by European Comedy Award Winner and theater actor and director Paolo Nani. The Letter is the most internationally toured Danish performance to date.

“This is a very simple performance. The same story told in 15 entirely different ways: Drunk, western style, silent film, without hands, horror, back to front, circus, surprised, vulgar, magical, etc. But all the variations have two things in common: Never a word is spoken and the result is ludicrous.”
