ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON THIS PERFORMANCE
ACTION
The story Arnljot, which comprises two acts, takes place in the significant turning point between Christianity and paganism, when both Norwegian and Swedish kings claimed Jämtland. We get to follow Arnljot who comes home to Jämtland after five years and he is thrown straight into the area’s intrigue. Who will be king of Jämtland? Which gods should one believe in? Has Arnljot’s youth love Gunhild been waiting for him? And what is said about Arnljot’s father?
