At the webpage of Ferske Scener the following, among other things, is written about Aldri Verden* (Never World):

"Again Totalteatret came to the final of The Audio Visual Fund's competition for best production, called Scenario 92.

They didn't win this time around, but came in second, and yet again proved that the quality of the productions was among the best in the country. The production was bought by Hålogaland Theatre and sent touring the autumn of 1992.

At the time Bernt Bjørn had taken over the role of his brother Stein, who had gone to Denmark for further education.

The production Aldri Verden became Kristin Eriksen's last as an actress for Totalteatret."
