When Icelandic hardman Egil and his crew are storm driven up the Humber and into the hands of his old enemy Erik Bloodaxe, their days of travelling trading and trashing seem numbered. But Egil has more strings to his bow ... and his harp, than first appear.

North Country Theatre originators of the Olivier Award Winning West End and Broadway hit version of "The 39 Steps" and many other ripping yarns turn their cunning creativity, word web weaving and bardic brilliance on a Yorvik episode from 10th century Egil's Saga.
