This is the first and only theatre show in the world to use full contact fight scenes, and the only wrestling show ever to do a run at the world’s biggest arts festival: Edinburgh Fringe.

I wrote it to weave together my favourite myths into a brand new version of the creation and destruction of the ancient Norse cosmos, and introduce the world to the abilities and talents of professional wrestlers – outside of the context of wrestling.

The show is a high-impact dark comedy in which half-brothers Odin and Loki must overcome primordial giants, rival Gods and Goddesses, and their own ambitions – in their quest to seize power over the Nine Worlds.

It runs out of the Cockpit Theatre in London.
