Meet the four lodge brothers from the Sons of the Desert and their secret lodge, where discipline is strictly enforced with sashes, tuxedos, and mandatory fez hats. The lodge's agenda ranges from crude jokes and bawdy stories, daring physical exercises, and risqué songs to a rousing musical performance...
As summer arrived in Denmark, Ørkenens Sønner took to the stage at Bellevue Teatret on Thursday, June 5, in front of an excited premiere audience. The nerves that had built up among the four desert sons leading up to the premiere quickly proved to be totally unnecessary—the premiere was a resounding success, and praise from both the audience and critics rained down on Ørkenens Sønner.
Line 3 has achieved Denmark's absolute highest sales record. For the performances in the Glass Hall in Tivoli, the Circus Building, and the national tour, a quarter of a million tickets were sold in advance before the premiere.
At a time when everyone is turning off the gas and saving electricity, it can be difficult to remain optimistic and hopeful for better times. But fear not! The renowned singing lodge Ørkenens Sønner (Sons of the Desert) has created a show that will blow all evil and gloomy thoughts out of the way. The heat hasn't been turned down, but the charm has been turned up! This time, the brave Loge brothers turn their gaze to sensual Paris. In a festive fireworks display of French temptations, historical and piquant scenes are performed, and as always with the awareness that it's all about keeping your finger on the pulse.
Our old lodge brothers are celebrating their 25th anniversary this year. This is being celebrated with the release of their eighth show! The show was recorded over two evenings in April and has now been edited down to just under two hours of fantastic (sultry) entertainment. The show covers a wide range of topics, and this year we meet the Little Mermaid, the Egtved Girl, the Grovbollemanden, and H.C. Andersen. The show also offers a reunion with Olsen, Meyer, Emma, and pet shop owner Clausen from Huset På Christianshavn itself. In addition, we will see old acquaintances such as Fjertomanen, and we will attend the funeral of Dorthe and Grethe at Gyllegården...
