At the website of Oslo Nye Teater (Oslo New Theatre) the following, among other things, is written about Three Little Pigs:

"Three Little Pigs is a musical fairytale about Cha, Siu and Bao (Norwegian: Grynt, Nuss and Nøff) who are going into the world to manage on their own. Cha is queen of the gym, Siu is an environmental activist, and Bao is a bookworm. As most siblings do, they argue and fight, and one day, when the trough is empty, their mother sends them away from the pigsty of childhood to find themselves. She waves them goodbye and promises a super-duper swine-safe world.

The siblings disagree about most things, and build each their house from wood, straw and bricks, before the Big Bad Wolf comes sneaking out of the woods. He flatters and charms the three builders and claims he has always been misunderstood. Besides, who is afraid of a big, bad wolf? Mother is taken hostage in a dramatic battle with oinks and yelps, from which only the smartest can save their bacon. We can promise a happy-as-a-pig mix of country brass, high excitement and big feelings.

The musical duo Drewe & Stiles are high-level stars, and they are behind the new musical version of My Fair Lady and the mega success HONK."
