Nine-year-old Pippi is strong, brave and fearless. When she comes to live in her new home with her monkey and horse but with no parents and no rules, she brings mischief, chaos and confusion to the folk of this ordinary and traditional town.

Sofie Miller introduces ‘the strongest girl in the world’ to young audiences. Expect much mischief, laughter and audience interaction!

Pippi, originally created by Lindgren for her daughter, is a free-spirited girl with superhuman strength who uses a powerful mix of anti-authoritarian thinking and kindness to challenge the status quo and to bring joy to the lives of those around her.
