TWO MEN AND A PLANK
With some self-irony and a twinkle in the eyes, Don Gnu pays tribute to the phenomenon of men wearing sandals and the right to be yourself. The beloved characters DON and GNU, known from the Reumert nominated trilogi MEN IN SANDALS, fight both for and against each other on placing the plank correctly!
An outdoor pop-up performance filled with raw physicality, crooked stunts and highlevel slapstick-comedy!
Duration: 25 min.

About the company
DON GNU is a guarantee of physical action theatre and dance combined in a playfull and poetic man-power universe!
The company was founded in 2010 by the two choreographers Jannik Elkær and Kristoffer Louis Andrup Pedersen, who also constitute the artistic duo at the helm of DON GNU. The company’s name is built around the paradox embedded in the name DON GNU. Don as an individual, and Gnu (wildebeest) as a herd animal, the constellation of both the individual and the collective creates the dynamism, experimentation and development-basis for the ideas that are the hallmark of DON GNU productions.
