Bjørneboeaksjonen* (The Bjørneboe Campaign)

Photo from Perleporten Teatergruppe's campaign Bjørneboe-aksjonen* (The Bjørneboe Campaign) (1977)

Perleporten Teatergruppe and some other people demonstrated against Norwegian theatre institutions treatment of Jens Bjørneboe as a playwright.

The campaign was held during the opening of Jeg tar meg den frihet* (I take the liberty), a collage of selected texts and songs by Jens Bjørneboe, at the Amphi Stage of The National Theatre. A bit into the performance, when the actor Henki Kolstad started citing the poem Ungdommens råskap (literally: The brutality of youth), a member of the audience blew a flute and Anna-Sophie Langfeldt got up to speak.

Theatre manager Arild Brinchmann was able to calm down the tempers onstage and in the seats. He turned on the working lights. The room was silent. Anna-Sophie Langfeldt read a manifesto about the treatment Norwegian theatre had given Jens Bjørneboe when he was alive.

Jens Bjørneboe died May 9 1976, and the opening of Jeg tar meg den frihet took place the year after, March 12 1977.
