Step into 95 year old Inga’s living room in Denmark as she reaches out through space and time to her grandson in New Zealand. Inga has seen world wars, cold wars, civil wars, in real life and on TV. And when you’re close to 100 you know a thing or two about a thing or two.

Back to Square One was originally designed to be performed in driveways, parks and cul-de-sacs in the aftermath of the 2020 lockdown. Using only chalk to draw with , Anders Falstie-Jensen weaves the Norse myth of Ragnarok into a unique story of disasters, family and unexpected connections.

“Beautifully crafted, it will bring a smile to your face long after you leave the theatre.” – Lynn Bushell, Theatreview
