Først kom ingenting, så kom ingenting

Around a suitcase, children are taken on a journey back to the origins of the earth, as envisioned by our ancestors the Vikings. The Norse creation myth is conveyed in poetic language with room for wonder and co-writing, without the contradictions and actions we usually associate with drama. The performance is almost more like a picture than theater in the traditional sense. Here and now, the world is created inside a small suitcase. It's magical and fascinating. The production was produced in collaboration with The Open Theatre and premiered on September 10, 2009.

A performance involves 3 screenings of 20 minutes each with a maximum of 25 children per screening. The performance is played in small and intimate contexts with the children in a semicircle around a suitcase.
