Press coverage

Peter Serck, Farlig Fassbinder (Dangerous Fassbinder), 18.10.1996, Morgenbladet [Oslo]:
"I choose to relate to this play and the performance of it as an ambiguous image of a far gone state of illness in the metropolis. [...] ...several places one can sense Brecht traditions, with the difference that there is no lecturing here at all. It may even be difficult to glimpse any direction at all in the play. That is why I choose to regard it as fundamentally chaotic - chaos is the real subject of this play."

Inger-Margrethe Lunde, date unknown, Klassekampen [Oslo]:
"It tended at times towards the amateur-like copying in acting style. [...] That is the uncomfortable. And we just barely get in touch with it. It should be much to expect from a half-professional company such as De Utvalgte."
