DON GNU is a guarantee of physical action theatre and dance combined in a playful and poetic man-power universe!

The company was founded in 2010 by the two choreographers Jannik Elkær and Kristoffer Louis Andrup Pedersen who also constitute the artistic duo at the helm of DON GNU. Today the company is one of the most touring companies in Denmark and has toured in all the Nordic Countries, South Korea, Canada, big parts of Europe, and Cuba.

The company’s name is built around the paradox embedded in the name DON GNU. Don as an individual and Gnu (wildebeest) as a herd animal the constellation of both the individual and the collective creates the dynamism experimentation and development-basis for the ideas that are the hallmark of DON GNU productions.
