In our 2018 production, we take a journey through the Norse afterlife to the hall of Valhalla. In Norse mythology, half of those who die in battle are chosen by the god Odin to live out their afterlife in this majestic hall. Those who are chosen are led by Valkyries to Valhalla to join the masses of those who died in combat, along with legendary heroes and kings as they prepare to aid Odin during the events of Ragnarök. Please sit back and enjoy our presentation of Voyage to Valhalla.
