About Pernille Haaland
Pernille Haaland is a stand-up comedian who, during lockdown, left London's streets behind for the cold, dark fjords of Norway. She has settled in surprisingly well, made friends with the local wolves and appears to be thriving — which she finds darkly apt timing given the state of the world. Her solo show at Nineties explores that decision and the wider backdrop of far-right extremism, wars and women's rights. Running 60 minutes, age guidance is 18 and over.
Why see this show?
A solo show that is funny and politically awake, built around a genuinely unusual life decision. Haaland's perspective — a single woman in her thirties trading London for Norwegian fjords — gives the material a real freshness.
