Itsi Bitsi
Iben Nagel Rasmussen tells of the years preceding her arrival at
Odin Teatret, years of hitchhiking round the world, of music and
poetry, of political radicalism and drugs. It is her story and that
of Eik Skaløe (the first beat poet to sing in Danish, who committed
suicide in India in '68) and of their generation.
Some fragments of the actress's previous performances are
interwoven, not as quotations and examples, but as revealing
metaphors: the mute Kattrin from Brecht's Ashes, the wandering
shaman from Come! And the Day will be Ours, the Trickster from
Talabot.
