In 1984 Eugenio Barba creates Nordisk Teaterlaboratorium &#8211; Odin Teatret. Nordisk Teaterlaboratorium was established as the umbrella organisation for Odin Teatret and other activities. In December 2022 Odin Teatret left Nordisk Teaterlaboratorium in order to continue autonomously its performances and cultural activities in Holstebro and abroad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Today Odin Teatret&#8217;s activities include: Odin&#8217;s own productions presented on site and on tour in Denmark and abroad; cultural initiatives; encounters for theatre groups; didactic courses of various types in Denmark and abroad; publication of magazines and books; production of didactic films and videos; research into Theatre Anthropology through the sessions of the International School of Theatre Anthropology (ISTA); productions with the multicultural Theatrum Mundi Ensemble; the TRANSIT Festival for women in theatre; and the project \u201cLiving Archive Floating Islands\u201d in Lecce, Italy, in collaboration with Fondazione Barba Varley.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Odin Teatret&#8217;s 60 years as a laboratory have resulted in the growth of a professional and scholarly milieu characterised by cross-disciplinary projects and international collaboration. One field of research is the International School of Theatre Anthropology (ISTA) where actors and dancers meet with scholars to compare and scrutinise the technical foundations of scenic presence. Another field of action is the Theatrum Mundi Ensemble which, since the early 1980s, presents performances with a permanent core of artists from several traditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Odin Teatret has so far created 83 performances directed by Eugenio Barba, performed in 65 countries and different social contexts. In the course of these experiences, a specific Odin culture has grown, founded on cultural diversity and the practice of &#8220;barter&#8221;: Odin actors present themselves through their work to a particular milieu which, in return, replies with songs, music and dances from its own local tradition. The barter is an exchange of cultural manifestations and offers not only an insight into other forms of expression, but is equally a social interaction which defies prejudices, linguistic difficulties and differences in thinking, judging and behaving.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/odinteatret.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/ot-vedtaegter-med-underskrifter-1-1.pdf\">ODIN TEATRET FORENING (VEDT\u00c6GTER)<\/a>  <strong>Read more&#8230;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left has-text-color has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"color:#f90404\">ODIN TEATRET FUTURE:<br><strong>ODIN TEATRET LEAVES<\/strong> <strong> NORDISK TEATERLABORATORIUM<\/strong> <br><strong>ODIN TEATRET\u2019S WANDERING OLD AGE<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/odinteatret.org\/index.php\/odin-teatret\/odin-teatret-future\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/odinteatret.org\/index.php\/odin-teatret\/odin-teatret-future\/\">H<\/a>ere is the epilogue of a long odyssey and the beginning of a new one. <br>At the end of November 2022, I and Odin Teatret will leave Nordisk Teaterlaboratorium&#8230;. <a href=\"https:\/\/odinteatret.org\/index.php\/odin-teatret\/odin-teatret-future\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/odinteatret.org\/index.php\/odin-teatret\/odin-teatret-future\/\"><strong>Read more<\/strong> https:\/\/odinteatret.org\/index.php\/odin-teatret\/odin-teatret-future\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-vivid-red-color has-text-color has-link-color has-medium-font-size wp-elements-6f02cb6f3b0b6bcfd22c40b90c40ad41 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>ODIN TEATRET SEPARATION FROM NTL &#8211; SOME CHRONOLOGICAL DOCUMENTS AND STATEMENTS from Odin Teatret\u2019s Archive about the separation process and re-founding of Odin Teatret.<\/strong> <br><a href=\"https:\/\/odinteatret.org\/index.php\/archival-information\/odin-teatret-separation-from-ntl\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/odinteatret.org\/index.php\/archival-information\/odin-teatret-separation-from-ntl\/\">Read more&#8230;. https:\/\/odinteatret.org\/index.php\/archival-information\/odin-teatret-separation-from-ntl\/<\/a><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"color:#fc0000\"><strong>ODIN TEATRET REBORN FROM ITS ASHES<\/strong><br><strong>THE NEW HOUSE OF OLD DREAMS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">Now that we have won the bet of staying together almost an entire lifetime, we have burned our&nbsp;house.
