I ANDEN is a free interpretation of August Strindbergs Toten Insel. Here as an Ockult Talkshow, a concert and a movement performance where different expressions, medias and ways of existence collide and meet.
​
Toten Insel is the island of death, the space in between and in this creation a fantasy and a speculation around what life after and death could look like.
​
In the search for answers and questions we invite guesting spirits to our show and move through memories, forgotten worlds, dreams and atmospheres.
​
How does death feel? What kind of a place is it? What is the meaning of forgotten loss? What stands in the foreground of ones own shadow? - are some of the questions building up throughout the show.
​
​Per Faxneld, Docent in western esotericism and alternative spirituality, Anders Omstedt, Author and Oceanlog are regular guest.
Every night a surprise guest also attends.
As well as Strindberg himself from the other side through our guest, artist and medium; Cecilia Edefalk.
Each show ends with the audience having a moment called ”FraÌŠga Strindberg” where the audience can ask questions directly to Strindberg.
​
Theatre is a place always haunted by fiction and spirit and the talkshow is our point of lookout. ​
