FÖRLORARNA is process based performance created in collaboration with the ensemble at Åbo Svenska Teater.

The performance deals with losing and what it means to grow up in a group-sports environment, questioning where the rules we all follow come from and what traces a sporty upbringing leaves in our sense of self for years after. It explores improvisation within set structures of games and the creation of our own games, of changing rules, cheating and finding a common ground to continue playing from - travelling between the sporty mindset of individualism towards a communal way of playing.
