For all 45 minutes

Welcome to a cheerful play about people who travelled to Svalbard!

The Arctic Hunt brought many people from Tromsø to this special place. All had their own reason for going there; one went to hunt, another to work as a pilot, and others “just to take a look what it was like”.

In the 20ies, the North was Klondike for the Arctic Hunt. Svalbard became harbour for adventurers from many different countries. The stories of these very different personalities is an Arctic treasury for theatre!
