The struggle for survival, community, strength and unity in a society on the brink of disaster. The ant is a worker, engineer, warrior and lover. It both cultivates nature, maintains biological order and is willing to die for the community. A superorganism and an organized society that makes the Scandinavian welfare state look like pure anarchy. The story of the life of the ants is the story of the very large themes in small sizes. On stage, five dancers with backgrounds in streetdance, clubdance, voguing, martial arts & contemporary that put body and movement on the world of ants. ANTS 1 + 1 = 3 was created in close dialogue with ant expert and senior researcher Hans Joachim Offenberg from the Department of Bioscience at Aarhus University, who, among other things, is the author of the book "ants".
