Press coverage

Writer and date unknown, Klassekampen [Oslo]:"A performance which, despite some minor flaws, is impressively free and professional. Verdensteatret bases its work in classic myths and an eclectic selection of modern literature. [...] The production has room for many subtle transitions between humour and pain. We see the themes at many levels, and most sympathetic is it that these artists obviously have a wise relationship to the issues, filled with understanding. Verdensteatret has taken a significant step forward, and is no doubt among the independent theatre projects it will be exciting to follow."
