Babette's Feast

Babette’s Feast

Conceived and developed by Abigail Killeen

Written by Rose Courtney

Adapted from the short story by Isak Dinesen

Presented by The Dulwich Players

It is 1871 and Babette has fled for her life, as a refugee from the violent uprisings in Paris. She arrives, destitute, on the doorstep of two devout sisters in a remote part of Norway.

But Babette is more than she seems. And the impact of her arrival on the people who take her in and the local community turns out to be transformative, both for them and for herself.

If Scandi Noir has left you bleak, come and be uplifted by a timeless tale of love and loss and laughter – and the triumph of the human spirit among the fjords.
