Mythos: Ragnarök – Alexandra Palace

One, two, three, Thor! How many times can you watch a guy pick another guy up and throw him at the ground before you lose your mind?

If you’re watching Mythos: Ragnoarök it’s well before Thor you’ll find yourself hooting, hollering, booing, hissing, cheering, and overall having a hel(l) of a good time. This play is performed by a cast of wrestlers so athletic, enthusiastic, and entertaining it’s impossible not to get caught up in the beautiful chaos they create.

Overstimulating in the best possible way, Mythos: Ragnarök is both technically astounding and intellectually stimulating, with an emotional heart that keeps a steady pace for each storytelling beat.

Writer and star Ed Gamester has created something truly special. Melanie Watson’s tremendous sets and costumes, Kjell Braaten’s banging original soundtrack, and Dan Phillips stunning lights, not only rise to the occasion of the formidable venue that is Alexandra Palace, but they also elevate the experience of the play and the palace into something both mythical and magical. An experience worth going to the ends of the earth for, Mythos: Ragnarök will rock your world.

Mythos: Ragnarök runs until 22nd March at Alexandra Palace with tickets and touring dates available at https://mythosragnarok.co.uk/
