In the performance program made by BIT Teatergarasjen, the following is written about Choral:

"Théâtre du Radeau's new production is named Choral. The production is based on Franz Kafka's diaries and The Trial and it has been staged in line with the former productions by the company. Still, with Choral the company has approached a more open and direct expression, in which elements of circus, among other things, are used in a special manner.

Choral is a song for a dying Europe, inspired by the world of Franz Kafka, with ethereal characters in a no man's land of light and dark. As there always is in the work of Théâtre du Radeau, the aesthetic basis for the body language, the music, the sound and the lighting is pure and filled with symbols. The meditative, dreamlike ambience many associate with Théâtre du Radeau, is in Choral broken by morbid, comical acts as well as circus acts."
