Wild - Susanne Marin

WILD is an honest, humorous and touching musical storytelling performance about sexuality, desire, liberation, shame and anger.

Vild touches on first love, passionate encounters and when the art of blending in has gone too far. About being a mother or not being one. About shame and pleasure. About longing for your red bikini and park bench sex in Brazil.

Carla Fri and Susanne Marins draw inspiration from their own lives, about how as children we have a natural connection with nature, our bodies and our emotions. As teenagers we search for our identity and as adults we have certain expected roles to play. What all are we allowed to be? What prevents us from daring to live life to the fullest?

Susanne and Carla offer self-composed music, recognizable stories and a large dose of humor. It is wild, lush, flourishing and forbidden. The performance has an interactive element where you can participate as much as you want, a Viha-huone is promised to some extent.
