DEN NYSGERRIGE HAVE

The Curious Garden

Theatre Madam Bach has transformed a bare industrial site into The Curious Garden, a lush, fragrant space with winding paths, secret caves, trickling rainwater channels, and buzzing insect hotels. This green haven fosters sensory experiences, community engagement, play, learning, and storytelling. We organise activities several times a year - including the SMALL SCALE FESTIVAL to make the garden a common, natural meeting place for local children and their families.

Making a Difference

Located in Odder, south of Aarhus in Denmark, The Curious Garden has quickly attracted bees, butterflies, wildflowers, small birds, and even birds of prey. It serves as an example of how even the smallest action can make a big difference. The concept of The Curious Garden originated from our desire to extend the theatre experience beyond the black box, blending art with the natural world. Our goal is to provide both children and adults with meaningful, shared experiences of nature. Our artistic approach is not scientific; instead, we engage children's senses through sounds, scents, colors, movement, images, and stories.

Curious? Come visit

Our garden is a fantastic space, open during scheduled activities and by special arrangement. We welcome groups of children as well as professionals interested in our work. We’re excited to share our knowledge through inspiration courses, where we explore how to integrate children’s senses, art, culture, and nature. Reach out, and let’s create an experience that suits your needs and wishes.
