The Fort

It’s just another day for the Canadian Mounted Police – if it wasn’t for the fact that all the horses seem to have escaped. Chaos reigns supreme and nothing is as it seems. Or is it? 

The works of Norwegian choreographer Jo Strømgren are synonymous with absurdity, irony and unexpected twists – always underpinned by a sharp social critique. His previous works for GöteborgsOperans Danskompani have earned praise such as “world class”, “spot-on” and “pure genius”. In this production he plays around with boys’-own literature of the 1950s, mixed together with imaginative choreography and film-inspired music.

Co-production with the Norwegian National Opera and Ballet.
