In the sixth version of “The Ship” De Utvalgte is inspired by the story of The Royal Court Theatre`s first artistic director, Enevold Brandt, and King Christian VIIs personal doctor, Johan Struensee. After a masquerade at the theatre both of them are captured and later sentenced to death by decapitation for treason.
The Ship is a series of productions with an inner coherence, created in dialogue with selected sites over the course of several years. Working with technology, nature and cultural imprints, the production pivots on the theme of hubris. The Ship and the journey represent hope of survival, a new land and a new future.
