Mythos

The legendary Edinburgh Fringe Festival phenomenon is finally returning to the Netherlands! This groundbreaking British theatre show combines the world of Norse mythology with professional wrestling. The Telegraph described it as ‘the perfect way to tell this story’. Shakespearean drama is combined with raw, physical fights, performed by actors who wrestle professionally.

In Mythos: Ragnarök we follow Loki, Thor and Freyja in a funny, energetic and surprisingly moving retelling of the famous Norse sagas. The gods face a make-or-break choice: work together on a new world, or perish in the apocalyptic battle of Ragnarök. The makers combine the dramatic power of William Shakespeare with the raw thrill of live combat, performed by a unique cast of actors trained in professional wrestling.

The result is an evening full of spectacular action, impressive handmade costumes and a stirring original soundtrack by composer Kjell Braaten, known for Wardruna and Vikings: Valhalla. After every performance there is a Meet & Greet with the cast and crew.

The show was written, directed and produced entirely independently by lead actor Ed Gamester and has already been performed more than 300 times worldwide. Dare to get up close? Then choose an exclusive seat on the stage, right in the middle of the action. Please note: these seats, and the shows themselves, sell out fast. Book early!

For this show, both seats on the stage and seats in the auditorium are available. During the booking process, check carefully which seats you want to select.

Mythos: Ragnarök is performed in English.
