At the website of Trøndelag Theatre the following, among other things, is written about Teatrofonen. Verdens overgang* (The theatrophone. Transition of the world):

"When the telephone was invented, the opportunity to call a theatre and listen to a performance by phone also became reality. In Paris, this was called Le théâtrophone. Today, an unlimited number of people can connect to the same conversation. All you need is your phone - and you can take part from your own living room. On your line, you meet Marianne Meløy, who thinks aloud from the good old phone box in an otherwise digital world. She will give a live talk about what we are all experiencing right now - and about new lines, old lines and long lines.
