The Fragile Life of Souls Gone Missing (Tabte sj\u00e6les sarte liv)<\/strong>
The fragile life of souls gone missing is a poetic larp about loneliness, being caught in personal world views and about the beauty of fragile interaction and small moments. Missing souls are searching for memories and meanings but can\u2019t hold on to anything. Like a soap bubble bursting after a few seconds, they lose track of who they are and their direction. The scenario is played with an audience that are free to walk around and interact with the players either as invisible or visible ghosts.

The Other Life Project<\/strong>
The Other Life is a space where you can reflect upon and experiment with identities, interaction and being. Through a new identity, your Other Self, you can take control over or lose yourself in attempts to develop new understandings of what it is possible to be and do, individually or together with others. It is an exercise in deepening presence, that makes time slow down. It may sound abstract, but luckily it is much easier to understand in practice. Co-produced with Peter Munthe-Kaas.

Inside Myself Outside Myself<\/strong>
The dors opens and you are lead into an unknown universe. It is sensual, but safe. Here is strange, yet familiar. Blackbox Cph 2014 gathered innovative people from the interactive arts and role playing scene and gave them six hours to design an experiential space for an audience. Co-produced with Matilda Bj\u00f6rkne, Carla Burns, Nilas Dumstrei, Mark Durkan, Marie Holm-Andersen, Petter Karlsson, Thom Kiraly, Peter Munthe-Kaas, Gustav Nilsson, Oliver N\u00f8gleb\u00e6k, Karin Ryding, Gabriel Widing. Played at Blackbox Cph IV (2014).<\/p>\n

Innocence (Uskyld)<\/strong>
Setting: an abstract, empty circus ring, created by light and the surrounding darkness. A group of innocent clowns with big hearts and little sense wake up in the empty circus ring. Lost and confused and with a longing for something they barely can remember they start to explore themselves and each other, searching for meaning and happiness. But life is hard for small clumsy clowns that are full of love but cannot speak. Out from the darkness the Salesman arrives and offers easy and exciting solutions for small but significant prices. Innocence is a physical scenario exploring topics like friendship, immediacy, strong emotions and the value of things that make life hard. The game uses gibberish as language. Played at: Metamorfozes (2014) Blackbox Cph IV (2014) Blackbox Deichman (Oslo, 2015) Black Box Horsens (2016). Winner of the scenario writing contest at Metamorfozes 2014.<\/p>\n

The Checkerboard Crew<\/strong>
Working collectively, players used characters created in intensive workshops to reinterpret the world around them. Players were tasked with leaving behind marks, physical or embodied, which might serve as beacons to a brighter future. In order to refrain from overly analytical approaches to the task, play was conducted almost entirely in silence. The two most important rules of the game were: 1) To transform the quality of \u2018the thing\u2019. 2) A collective consensus must always be reached. Co-produced with Adam James. Played at: A week in Vilnius (2014).<\/p>\n

Alice<\/strong>
Alice is a scenario for three players. One plays Alice and the other two plays Dream and Reality. Alice is the main character, who doesn\u2019t know who or where she is, and thus has to go with the flow until she finds herself and can make her own choices. Dream and Reality are worlds, and at the same time beings with their own agendas. They influence Alice\u2019s journey as she travels through them. They are playing persons from Alice\u2019s close, rough reality and from her fantastic, nightmare-like dream. They play with her life by forcing their worlds on her, but at the same time they both love her. Played at: Fastaval (2014). Otto award nominations: Best roles, Best effects, Best scenario. Nr. 3 in the category Best game experience at Fastaval 2014.<\/p>\n

Beginning (Begyndelse)<\/strong>
Beginning starts at the dawn of time, where a group of blind beings slowly comes to life. The scenario is about the beings and their meeting with themselves, each other and the ever-changing world they live in. Through an extensive pre-larp workshops, the players get familiar with moving and playing when not seeing, and are taken into a magical world of sound, smells and feelings, but with no sight. Gradully, the beings learn to move in different ways and explore the world and the other creatures that live there. Beginning is an abstract scenario, focusing on the bodily and the senses. Played at: Blackbox Cph III (2013), Knutpunkt (2014), Black Box Horsens (2015).<\/p>\n

Under the rainbow (Under regnbuen)<\/strong>
Genre: Short story scenario. Under the rainbow is about three beings seeking something they might already have, but that they think they are missing. One wishes to be beautiful, one to be wise and one to be exciting. They are sent out on a journey to find The Wizard, who can grant them their wishes if they are willing to sacrifice everything everything they have and everything they know. Under The Rainbow takes place in an abstract and magical universe and is an adaption of \u201cThe Wisard of Oz\u201d. Played at: Forum (2013) Fastaval (2016), Fastaval (2017)<\/p>\n

White Death (Hvid d\u00f8d)<\/strong>
A group of pioneers once set out for the mountains with the aim of creating a new society, bringing only absolute necessities, as well as their hopes and dreams. They had the best intentions but couldn\u2019t succeed. Life in the mountains was too hard; too demanding. They had traveled too far, and couldn\u2019t find their way back. One by one, the snow embraced them, giving them silence, peace and rest. Tranquility and light. A poetic, non-verbal larp that emphasizes physical expression. The players are guided through feelings like anger, frustration, sorrow, and fear \u2013 and the feelings of peace and closeness which follow the characters\u2019 gentle deaths. Music by Tom Waits, Nick Cave and Johnny Cash sets the tone. Co-produced with Simon Steen Hansen. Played at: Blackbox Cph II (2012), Grenselandet (Oslo) (2012), Blackbox Cph IV (2014), Black Box Horsens (2015), Knudepunkt (2015), A Love Piece (2017).<\/p>\n

In a world that is about to go under, a boy, a woman and an old man is heading on a last, surreal journey away from everything they know, with a last hope to find themselves before everything ends.
