Blood Club

In an unpredictable mix of humour and sincerity, Blood Club deals with themes of belonging, community and cultural heritage.

Blood Club is a series of performative encounters where the artists and the audience investigate our contradictory relationship with genetics and culture. It’s a search for the ultimate feeling of togetherness and how to create a strong community.

The leaders of Blood Club represent archetypes from the north: ‘The Sami activist’, ‘the researcher’, ‘the victim of Norwegianisation’ and ‘the bearer of Norwegian guilt’. They search to expand or develop these ‘types’ and create new roles for the future while presenting possibilities – or perhaps utopias – that can replace them.

There will be speeches and exercises, with live music by the hard-core band Ondt Blod.

Ferske Scener creates context-specific performances in the intersection between text and relational performances. Ferske Scener was established in 2004.

Ferske Scener belongs in the Arctic. The region’s conflicts and encounters connected to culture, language, ethnicity, and nature form the framework for their performances.

Ferske Scener creates performances that thrill, challenge, ask questions and entertain the audience; they are interested in provocation as well as laughter. Their performances are based on a need for conversation or negotiation that needs to take place here and now, live with the audience.
