The wooden sailboat Johanne has sailed thousands of
natutical miles from the North Sea through insidious Skagerrak, to the
open Baltic Sea. Her hull has experienced madness and scurvy, and under
the cover of the night, her crew has conspired, been drinking and taught
themselves new tricks!
In strong gale the sea fog’s heroes stand weathered, raw and ready
with a wild and imposed circus-show! A mad and ingenious balancing act
about life aboard, and the world on land.
With neck-breaking acrobatics from the mast, handstand in the wind,
and precision second to none in everything that takes place, the crew of
artists and musicians demonstrates what happens when the line of
command disappears, and creative anarchy breaks free!
“Circus from the Nordic Sea” is an impressive and
seductive circus-show with a duration of approx. 60 min. and includes
livemusic by Swedish electronica-artist Jenny Nilsson and is recommended for all ages. “Circus from the Nordic Sea” is the 2nd in line of DYNAMO’s co-produced circus performances!
Arcade Delight
What do you
do as a nostalgic when, do to 20 years of unstoppable technological
advancement, the arcade machines have had to see themselves banished to the darkness?
– When kitsch is no longer cool and we have gradually forgotten how to move on
roller skates?
One option is undeniably and insistently to force breath life back into it accompanied by the tunes of Talkin Heads and Bowie and force feed the mischievous types with roller disco, shoulder pads and masterful circus acts.
Through a
neon-lit retro arcade hall, you enter the pastel-colored parallel universe, to
the sounds of the Donkey Kong and Pac Man themes. Stage smoke, light fixtures
and DJs frame the roller skate disco dome, while a street of dilapidated sheds
houses bars, roller skate dispatch center, air rifle shooting tent, a “redundancy
horn” of a dressing room, face painting for adults, photo booth and street food
trucks of straight out curiosities.
And then of
course the circus!
If you can
come dressed up according to the 80’s theme?!
YES!
Arcade
Delight is an all-night event in a complete universe where you as the audience
can move freely. There are very few rules for you in your role as an audience:
Have a party and participate!
Arcade
Delight is an immersive concept developed by DYNAMO, which means that you as an
audience / participant, in addition to being included as a scenographic
element, will also be able to interact with the acts and artists you are
surrounded by.
You may want
to dress up for Arcade Delight – feel free! Just like you might have pair of roller
skates that you think the whole world should see – Bring ‘em – Helle, roll your
way down here!
Any excess
tickets are sold at the door.
Det får bära eller brista
An acrobatic performance telling the story of women’s strength
The research has its focus on Nordic women’s physical tasks during the last hundred years. It originates from interviews with the artists mothers, grandmothers, and great grand mothers.
In Det får bära eller brista six female acrobats work together as three duo pairs, as two trio groups, and as an acrobatic collective.
They all have approximately twenty years of experience as circus performers.
Det får bära eller brista is a beautiful, physical and impressive portrayal of the woman as the bearing figure in life. The show caters to audiences of all ages, but we recommended that smaller children come in the company of adults.
Nordic folkmusic
The music is based on the Nordic countries’ folk music and tradition. New compositions are inspired by traditional folk music from Sweden, Denmark, Norway and Finland.
The two musicians, the multi-instrumentalists Anna Cederquist and Anna Rynefors, illustrate and reinforce the performance with varied, warm, suggestive, happy, heavy and curvy modern folk music.
CANCELLED: Portmanteau
The performance has unfortunately been cancelled
A poetic meeting
To the deep tones of a double bass, two performers move around the stage. One is a dancer, the other is a visual artist. Both with rooted experience as circus performers.
Based on a portmanteau – a linguistic term for new words that combine two meanings – the performance examines what happens in the meeting between two artistic expressions.
Together, the performers explore space, sounds, light and movement – a poetic and visual encounter between bodies and senses that entices and challenges the imagination.
Like in poetry, Portmanteau does not dictate a clear narrative, but rather allows the audience to bring in their own interpretations.

POSTPONED – DÉJÀ
A living time capsule
In a space of 20 m2, the world’s entire history takes place over a span of 8 billion years through expressive movement, magical illusions and puppet theater.
From cavemen in loincloths to the DJs in tracksuits – a visual journey through time that questions our meaning, or rather: Our insignificance, seen in a larger perspective of the concept of time.
DÉJÀ is inspired by Richard McGuire’s award-winning graphic novel Here. It serves poetic and a humorous expression that composes images from different eras.
A slide show of what was, what is and what may come.
The performance is presentet in collaboration with Teater Momentum, and is shown at Ny Vestergade 18, Odense C
The performance is postponed due to the lockdown.
Ticket price on performance night at the venue: kr. 200 – buy your ticket in pre-sale. It is much cheaper!
ABOUT THE COMPANY
The Krumple seeks to create visually arresting theatre without borders, characterized by a strong element of surprise. The human is at the forefront of everything they do, each show walking a fine line between sensitivity and stupidity, as they strive to look through both ends of the telescope for what usually cannot be seen.
You’ll never cross the street in the same way again!
DON GNU digs into the tediousness of everyday routines in search of poetry and humor in a performance with muscular physicality and edgy stunt tricks.
One ordinary day, four ordinary men take a walk through a city. They readily follow unwritten and strict rules of good behavior and norms of social etiquette until one of them suddenly decides to rebel…
With trademark DON GNU “everyday stunts” and raw physicality, WALK-MAN is a performance in which the ground is literally swept away from under the feet of four men walking. In a world where rules, norms and routines no longer apply, a pedestrian is not simply a person crossing the street and common understanding of “good behavior” falls apart.
The performance is presented in collaboration with Teater Momentum

TICKET Membership: 0 kr. Ticket: 200 kr. Group ticket, adult: 140 kr. (min. 6 pers.) Youth ticket u/25: 110 kr. Group ticket, youth: 80 kr. (min. 6 pers.)
