At its Facebook page, Overspillteatret writes the following, among other things, about Spelet om trona* (The game of the throne):

"Translate Spelet om trona into the English... What do you get? GAME OF THRONES!

For you who LOVE the world-famous TV series: At SALT Art & Music this summer, you will be served a brand new interpretation of the first season, whether you want to or not.

For you who never bothered to see the longest and most complicated series in the world (it lasts for three days with 121 main characters): Do not fear, we do one season in just 60 minutes! And we guarantee that it won't be complicated, as we have only two weeks to put it together.

And for you who hate the series: Fuck you and your mother! No, you could bring your mother to the show, we like her, but you may wait outside.

This will be a madcap humour show for everyone, and the performance will be appropriate for people aged 12 years or older. We promise that profanities, serving of beer and the smell of blood will never be far away!

The whole thing culminates the summer of 2027, when we give you the end you longed for/did not think of for one second, in season 8.

Do not miss out on the first season this summer!"
