Performance impro with colour, joy, laughter and play!
Time: 11 - 12.00 Location: Borggården and outside - Free
By: Jan Egil Finne, Hans Christian Van Nijkerk, Mari Nordahl and Anette F. Johannessen
A performance with a firework of intuitive performances, where we as a group together will create colours, joy, laughter and play. The performance is an open invitation to fantasize around actions that do not quite belong in the everyday life. It is an exploration of what to do and how to be, both with other people and with objects or materials.

Coral Troat Family Christmas
Time: 12.00 - 14.30 Place: Borggården - Free
By: KirstyKross-

Kirsty Kross comes from a fishing family in Queensland - Australia. The coral trout lives in the threatened Great Barrier Reaf (Australia). The fish is neon orange and blue. At Verftet Kirsty will invite you to experience the coral troats Christmas tree, find your very own mask to wear, have a place where you can be photographed, and play with the colours of orange and blue. Here, children and adults will be able to participate in different ways along with the colourful figurine. A good reminder that even in Christmas times it is important to take care of the the environment.

The performance at Verftet is about being attentive, both of the fish, the body and the future. It will definitely engage children and their families. It will be humours, yet with a serious topic that will appeal to the larger group.

Gulrot av Mari Nordahl
Tid: 13.15 - 14.15
Mari Nordahl sin underfundige skapning har ingen armar. kun munnen og bena er synlig. Derfor kan den ikke se noen ting som helst og roter seg bort i litt forskjellige forviklinger mens den prøver å utforske verden rundt seg. "Gulrot" liker godt gulrøtter, og på USF familiedager vil den lete etter gullerøtter. Men fordi mange gulerøtter gir vondt i magen, vil skapninga forsøke å synge, plystre, og så vil den blåse opp ballonger, oransje ballonger. Sidan skapningen ikkje har hender, blir alt komplisert og ballongene vil blåse bort, der ballongprompelyd kan forekomme.
