And in May 2015 we played at the “International Kinder- und Jugendbuchwochen” in Cologne, Germany and in September 2015 we played the “Puppet Player” at the Danish Embassy in Berlin, Germany, in conjunction with the Nordic Cultural Festival 2015. This was made possible by the Cultural Secretariat. in the Municipality of Odense as part of a partnership between the Embassy in Berlin in connection with the celebration of Carl Nielsen's 150th birthday.
