Press coverage

Lillian Bikset, Sant om løgn (literally: True about lies), Dagbladet 03.03.12:

"Of all of Ibsen's life-lie dramas, Ghosts is the one with the most disturbing consequences. Helene Alving sees her son unravel. She knows that he, if she had been braver, wouldn't have had to. (...) Kjersti Haugen, Henrik Ibsen and Trøndelag Theatre is an obviously fortunate combination. Last year Haugen interpreted A Doll's House for the theatre. This year time has come for Ghosts. As its predecessor the production is an examination of truth and lies, revelation and consequence. The action is cut down to the most sincere, penetrating, intense. Again we see an honest presentation of the character of lie."
