In a remarkable display of loyalty and creativity, James Rowland fulfilled his best friend Tom's last wish, a full Viking burial, after Tom was diagnosed with heart cancer. • The show combines storytelling, music, comedy, and even a genuine Viking helmet to create a comic ode to death, friendship, and life. • Team Viking premiered at the 2016 Edinburgh Fringe, where it became a critically acclaimed, sold-out hit and launched James Rowland's career as a contemporary storyteller. • Since its premiere, the show has been performed hundreds of times across the UK and internationally, solidifying its place as a modern classic.

The Marlowe Theatre in Canterbury will host Team Viking on Thursday, 18 February 2027. Tickets are with the button beside the article. With its unique blend of humour, raw emotion, and joy, this anniversary edition of Team Viking is a testament to the power of friendship and the human spirit.
