About the Production

Festen was The Company Theatre's largest ensemble production until Domesticated in 2015. Based on the acclaimed Dogme 95 film by Thomas Vinterberg, Mogens Rukov and Bo Hr. Hansen, this powerful drama unfolds at a family celebration where dark secrets are revealed, shattering the facade of a respected Danish family. A searing examination of family, truth, and the cost of silence.
