A joyful romp across time, space, and mythology for everyone to enjoy. Watch the fabulously athletic Ragnarök team, styled as characters from Norse mythology, retell the famous apocalyptic tale of Ragnarök via the mediums of theatre and wrestling. Gritty, sweaty, thumping action welcomes and beckons in the crowd. You will find yourself cheering, stomping, laughing, wincing, and even booing along. The experience completed with lighting, smoke, and sound effects all used to profound effect. The characters vibrant and alive, and in your face. It’s great fun to be part of, and you do feel part of the tale due to the energy the team deliver.

Over the past few years Mythos Ragnarök has cemented itself as one of the standout shows of the Fringe, one that really is a must see, and this year is no different. The show itself remains unchanged, yet the venue demanded the audience to be further away from the brashness of it this year, reducing the impact the team have worked so hard to achieve. Still a must see, but ensure you get there early and sit up front where you can get the full musk of it all in your nostrils, taste all of that sweat flying around, and get sucked into the wild adventure that is Mythos Ragnarök.
