In the autumn program of BIT Teatergarasjen 2001 the following is written aboutEdith Piaf - de store kvinnene og meg* (Edith Piaf - the Great Women and Me) by Lahrs:

"This one-act play is devoted to the mystery of Edith Piaf. The production is composed by film, music and text in what is an uncompromised, rough journey into all we didn't know about Edith Piaf. What we remember is a little woman with a great voice, who fascinated all the men she met.

But who knows that she was blind as a child? Or that the love of her life died in a plane crash because she had asked him to take an earlier flight?

The story of Edith Piaf is conveyed to us through three voices - the actress, the musician and the movie. Behind monologues, written on the basis of Simone Berteaut's biography, the film supplements and comments, reserved and silent. The music is partly rearranged to a more modern expression. The new theatre company brings the story of Edith Piaf up to date, pulling us into a rough, but intimate mystery."
