Press coverage

Halvor Titlestad, Sarpsborg Arbeiderblad August 11 2000. Rating the performance worthy of six pips on the die:

"The Østfold edition of the Shakespeare play is something as simple – but still hard – as very good theatre. Here are great efforts by the actors in a classical play on a very special stage. The big tower provides an unusual frame. (...) The young actors onstage and behind the stage treat the greatness of Shakespeare in a humble and honourable manner, but they still attack the task in a disrespectful manner: To make their own mark on a play so often performed – in all contexts."
