Animal R.I.O.T

The entire Animalia trilogy by Wakka Wakka is now being presented, and this is performance number 1.

Wakka Wakka, consisting of Kirjan Waage and Gwendolyn Warnock, is an award-winning theater company based in Oslo and New York.

Animal R.I.O.T. (Animal Resurgence In Our Time) is a series of performances with renowned anonymous theater artists and puppets, led by the founder of Animal R.I.O.T., The Fantastic Mr. Fox. Biocentrism, consciousness, anthropomorphism, mimesis and metamorphosis are central to the project, which concentrates on humans and wild animals. Through puppetry, song, dance, communication exercises, and animal perspective workshops, The Fantastic Mr. Fox hopes to help improve contact with other living organisms.

Duration: around 75 min. No intermission
Language: English for the most part
Price: from 100 – 150 NOK

Join our mask workshop one hour before the performance. It’s not guaranteed that you’ll become a better version of yourself in this workshop, but you can create an animal alter ego for yourself. The workshop is free, fun, and you’ll get closer to Mr. Fox.
