A Mercedes perhaps?
Won't mind a Maybach either! Even a small one.
Thanks, Eya.
This is from the small theater at Fredensborg, that is now used as a storage room.
In 1953 the three princesses performed Hansel and Gretel. (In DK: Hans and Grete.) With Benedikte and Anne-Marie being the two children. And princess Margrethe, no doubt very convincingly, playing the witch and the children's step mother.
One of the props you can see is the oven where Margrethe... I mean the witch was burned.
- Okay, for those of you who are unfamiliar with the story of Hansel and Gretel it's about two unruly and gluttonous children who were having issues with their stepmother. Their father, a forest-worker was away most of the day on... business...
It so happens that the harvest failed and famine was looming. The considerate stepmother discussed the serious situation with their father and they agreed on taking the children to another area, where there would be more food available.
The scheming children overheard the discussion and only thinking about themselves they collected a large number of pebbles, that would help them finding their way back to their home, where they in their usual fashion proceeded to eat their way through the meager supply of food available to the family.
But the second time the children somehow managed to get away from their kind stepmother and instead went deeper into the forest.
Here they came to a house made from pastry and sweets. The two vandals unhesitatingly began to eat the house, without bothering to knock on the door, to the great consternation of the resident. A sweet elderly lady.
The kind lady, upon hearing the story of the children, felt pity for the children and placed them in a shed for their own protection. There being wolves and bears around - and no doubt also to prevent further destruction of her property...
She told the skinny children that she would fatten them up and when they had gained enough weight they would have a feast together.
The lady fed these two parasites well, and having a poor eyesight and not owning a scale, she felt their fingers.
But in their insatiable greed the children held out a bone for the lady to feel. In that way they could be fed until the kind woman's storage had been depleted.
Eventually, and no doubt in despair, the elderly women decided to host the little feast she had promised the children.
They were let out and led into the kitchen were the oven had been lit, in order to prepare the meal. The two little psychopaths showed no gratitude, instead they took advantage of the elderly lady's poor eyesight and with a tale of a fault with the oven they lured the sweet retiree to the oven and pushed her inside the oven, shut the lid and as a result the unselfish lady fried to death.
A horrible fate! No wonder it has been remembered throughout Schwarzwald for centuries!

The real story behind Hansel and Gretel appears to be no less dramatic!
