About the show
The trip is a race whose main prize is the experience. In that respect, these men are the best of the best racers - true champions. Even greater than they think themselves. Two cross-country skiers, lost in the map and the season, side by side and yet on the same trail, undertake a cross-country odyssey - a vicious journey with an unclear end and course! Poles up, wax for the moustache, tea for courage and step sun step!
The performance "Running Odyssey" draws on the Brothers in Trick's years of experience in the field of street theatre. The troupe's traditionally strong domain is self-irony, juggling, object manipulation, spare acrobatics and affectionate humour. Audiences will be mentally and physically drawn into the action no matter what. No clue? Never mind, this show is no classic!
As the popular German saying goes, "LANGLÄUFER LEBEN LÄNGER" - "cross-country skiers live longer"! Laughter and humour are said to add years too. So discover the elixir of immortality with this performance!
