Abstract
This bachelor essay is a performance theory oriented study of ritual magic in the Swedish esoteric order Dragon Rouge. I research ritual practice trough participant observation, ritual scripts, textbooks and interviews. Analytical focus lies on ritual creativity and meaningful actions where I analyse ritual as en event and performance that consist of a composition of different ritualising actions, mediated through metacommunicative frames. At the same time, through the indeterminacy of the ritualising actions, the participants are given the opportunity co-create the ritual as an embodied, meaningful event.
