Thor’s A Dick – Viking Legends NOT For Kids is coming to Colchester Fringe, for some classic Viking myths not for the little ones.
Join Yorkshire storyteller Eden as he retells some of the darker tales from the old north. Today we see Thor and the Norse gods as heroes, but like a lot of the ancient gods they were full of faults and more human in their anger, jealousy, and spite. Today we present these tales to kids as friendly stories but in reality, they’re about heroes taking revenge by pouring snake venom into their enemies’ eyes, and parents taunting their offspring with the death of their loved ones. Back in dark ages these tales were for everyone, and scaring the life out of kids was not a problem. It’s as simple as a tale as old as time, one man, a few stories all that’s missing is the fire we won’t be sat around.
