At the webpage of Nordland Theatre the following, among other things, is written about Petter:
"Petter Dass is a name immediately connected to Northern Norway. As with most historical persons, opinions differ. This is true for Petter Dass as well.
Presenting the historical Petter Dass in this production has not been a purpose. The discussion surrounding Petter, who he was and what he meant, will likely never quieten - and that is a good thing. What we know for sure is what he wrote, and that lives on more than 300 years after his death. The same goes for the myths and anecdotes.
The church play will be a meeting with familiar hymns in nine handsome churches along the coast of three districts in the county. It will put its emphasis on Petter as an artist, and on how the nature, the elements and the history of the coastal livers became a central part of his writing."
