In Christian Lollike's new play, a small kingdom in the far north finds its army has no soldiers, and its leaders ask how to get ordinary people to stand up for their country. The piece takes a sharp satirical look at rearmament, security and what it means to be a community when conflict arrives.
Lollike, who has twice won a Reumert award for Best Production in a row, asks what the shared "we" is worth when war comes, and what people are prepared to give up for it. The production is a serious, powerful evening rather than a light one, and it uses strobe light, smoke and loud sound effects.
