Description was written before the event

A portrait programme about jazz musician Jesper Thilo, featuring selected film clips, curated and presented by Michael Thomsen.

About the venue: Posthusteatret

Posthusteatret is housed in the historic post office building on Købmagergade in Copenhagen, dating from the late 19th century. The theatre stages musicals, revues and entertainment shows in an intimate auditorium framed by striking period architecture. Its setting in a listed building gives performances a character quite different from the city's larger stages.
