City of Friends is a series of children’s books created by Carl Christian Hamre for his son. Inspired by his day-job as a Special Forces police officer in the Norway State Police, Hamre recreated these stories from his daily adventures while working with the Emergency Services.

The daily show runs for free until July 8 at 4pm, 6pm and 8pm during weekdays. An additional show takes place at 9pm on Thursdays and Fridays.

Families who attended the opening show on Thursday were fascinated with the performance and enjoyed watching their favourite book characters come to life. Children were also given the opportunity to take pictures with their favourite characters right after the show. More info
