Prior to Grorudbanenvoff* (The Grorud Line Woof) Rolv Bergesen and Øyvind Berg tried to awaken interest as follows:

"After for a long time wondering about this thing with eternity lasting the longest, BRØB found it necessary to present a subway bark in Bergen. How this is in fact going to play out is not yet clear, but the evening is likely to start with a film by Gurå Mathiesen, in which BRØB and DS take part. And eventually BRØB will fix a party with fish soup and flowing music by Per Henrik Svalastog.

But between film and party; will a dramatic process play out vertically? Where, for instance, Worm Winther and Ingvild Holm also participate? Will BRØB perhaps paraphrase Stefan Themerson's modern classic Wooff Wooff - or who killed Richard Wagner?

As this text can easily offend the recurring audience of Teatergarasjen, is the idea really to supply it, or alternatively, to replace it, with an all original work?

Is there anything to the rumours that BRØB will cremate a well-known Norwegian culture personality?"
