TakkTakk
We are slowly discovering what Iceland is all about. What a strange smell the warm water has here, how the wind blows and how soon it gets dark. Dark creatures from the sea that climb to the lighthouse only when all the inhabitants of the town are already asleep. The aurora borealis hides behind the clouds, but we all know that this strange entity is out there somewhere. Lonely farms at the foot of the mountains, huge glaciers. Seals. A special light that makes a person feel that every minute here is more unique than anywhere else. We learn to understand and know all this. TakkTakk is a production that we decided to create during our internship stay in Reykjavík.
We are looking forward to the up to 12 spectators, for whom we will play, we will sit at our common table.
