Danish theater production from 1985. Per Olov Enquist wrote this chamber play about three cultural figures from Danish history. H.C. Andersen, who tries to gain favor with the cultural elite, the powerful theater director Johan Ludvig Heiberg, and his wife, the actress Johanne Louise Heiberg. Like the poet, Mrs. Heiberg also comes from a poor background and has stubbornly fought her way up the social ladder. The recording is from the Royal Theater's production.

An uptight, confused man lives with his wife and maid next to a big tree. He suspects people live up in the tree when he keeps finding various items and trash under the tree. The government appointed street cleaner doesn't do much, except occasionally take trashy people off the street and into the garbage. He suspects the maid of stealing food and sexual perversions, and the police precinct is literally a farm with insane cops imprisoning lamps and horses.
