Tortoise in a Nutshell
Share
Edinburgh based visual theatre company. Mixing live action, puppetry and music to make theatre.
For one night only the return of multi-award winning Ragnarok, THIS SATURDAY at Capital Theatre Studio, Edinburgh.
A collision of ancient myth and modern spectacle, Ragnarok takes its inspiration from Norse mythology’s cyclical tale of the same name. It is a story about fate and determination, mortals and gods, the world’s end and its rebirth.
What is it to be one face in a million, walking through the end of your world?
A young girl and her brother battle forward, seeking a future in a promised land. Two souls in a sea of thousands, they move through a fractured world as dream and reality clash around them.
Ragnarok creates a bold, haunting and multisensory theatrical world, populated by scores of hand-crafted clay figures and an atmospheric immersive soundtrack. Multi-award-winning company Tortoise in a Nutshell create an enthralling new production that fuses forms to stunning effect, blending human performance, puppetry and hand-crafted live animation in their most ambitious production to date.
Ragnarok is an international co-production between Tortoise in a Nutshell and Figurteatret I Nordland (Nordland Visual Theatre) in association with MacRobert Arts Centre.
