FAQ – Pippi 80 celebration We have gathered frequently asked questions about using the Pippi 80 material. The material is a part of the toolkit Children's literature .
Are we allowed to dress up as Pippi Longstocking? All children are welcome to play and dress up as Pippi. However, an adult may not perform as Pippi (i.e., stage a visit from Pippi at the event). This type of performance requires a license, which is not included in the Pippi 80 material. Performing as the character requires a theatrical license, which is only granted to theaters with a pre-approved script.
If you are interested in staging a play at your event, you can contact the agency Nordiska Aps for more information about scripts and terms.
Children can dress up as Pippi. Photo: Lena Granefelt/imagebank.sweden.se We are not an embassy or a consulate. Can we use the toolkit materials anyway? The materials may only be used by Swedish foreign missions and we only transfer financial support to Swedish embassies or consulates.
You can find similar material to celebrate Pippi 80 years on astridlindgren.com
Can we print the exhibition posters in any size? Pippi 80 includes a poster exhibition in A3 format, and that is the format that applies. The exhibition is designed to be printable with a regular printer. We have not made any adjustments for the exhibition modules because it is not intended as a classic exhibition for adults but to be done in a children's environment.
Can we translate the toolkit materials to a local language? An embassy or consulate can translate the Pippi materials to their local language. When you want to translate the material, always contact the Swedish Institute for information about existing translations and help creating high resolution PDF print files.
Can we apply for funding to purchase Pippi Longstocking books? Swedish foreign missions can apply for financial support for adapting and using the toolkit materials and materials within the toolkit event, such as Pippi Longstocking books.
We are wondering which Pippi Longstocking books have been translated into our local language? The Swedish Institute has a list over Pippi Longstocking Publishing Companies.
Please contact the project manager Monika Rönngren at monika.ronngren@si.se if you need help.
Can we show Pippi Longstocking movies? Studio 100 handles the distribution of Pippi Longstocking movies outside the Nordic countries.Kontaktperson Tanja Aichberger Schätzle: Tanja.Aichberger.Schaetzle@studio100media.com
Within the Nordic countries the films are distributed by Svensk Filmindustri (SF).
