All three refused to make themselves victims. Even as inmates of mental hospitals. Creative women. Artists through life and illness.

We meet the writer Agnes von Krusenstjerna, the artist Sigrid Hjertén and the poet Nelly Sachs and are taken on a journey through their artistry, life and illness. How were these women able to take power over their situation, against the world and institutions, and still maintain their creativity?

The performance is based on Karin Johannisson's book Den sårade diva – om psykets estetics and on Agnes von K, Sigrid H and Nelly S

It is the night Isaac Newton is to die and God comes to visit with an errand.
A mystery play about man and his God.

Late one rainy evening in London, there is a knock on the door of scientist Isaac Newton's study. It is the evening he is to die and God comes to visit with an errand.

He wants to understand his own image – what is a man?

A Thousand Years with God was Stig Dagerman's last literary attempt before his tragic death in 1954. 2023 marks the hundredth anniversary of Dagerman's birth. A Thousand Years with God is a performance that straddles the line between light and darkness, humor and seriousness.
