Desperately Seeking Comfortable Shoes, is a love story with song told through the Queering of Viking mythology. Miya, a 30-something single mom, auditions for non-binary rocker Jonny’s band. Sparks fly between the two, but their flirting is interrupted by a robbery. Jonny’s bulldog Judy Garland and Miya’s comfortable Dansko clogs are stolen. The duo takes off on a wild chase across the city, trying to recover their precious belongings. Little do they know, Jonny’s roommate and bandmate Norena is weaving them in a binding love spell. This simple story of falling in love, is wrapped up in questions of time, fate, and the supernatural. It is inspired by true Queer Norwegian histories, and the story of Odinn’s quest for the mead of poetry. As in Odinn’s myth, the lovers encounter twin robbers, angry giants, and a bit of magic.
