Spiced with Nordic Mythology, trends and radical nature, Lene Boel’s new choreography  is an explosive and magical blend of contemporary dance, break dance and classical ballet with an acrobatic twist.
Eight distinct and strong individuals form a clan based on loyalty, honour and will power where raw, mystical and humorous games of war and love are played out.
Reaching the future from the past taking inspiration from games and ideas of honour of the Viking era Berserks: Mad as Wolves, Soft as Lambs bridges the gap between the 8th and the 21st century and beyond.
