The Hedda Jury gave the following reason for the award to the production:
"The production of the year is innovative in a way we rarely experience in the theatre. Classic texts are usually made topical, modernised and developed to be adjusted for new generations. This year's award winner does the opposite, in going back to the original. Through staying faithful to the original text, it shows that it is still possible to make classic drama topical and to give it new life through, exactly, trusting the text and the writer, while the content through good direction and excellent acting is made clear and understandable.
The production of the year award goes to Hamlet."
The Hedda Jury gave the following reason for the award to Eriksen:
"A male leading role often has the power of definition in the production. That is in particularly large degree the case with this year's award winner, who with his intense presence gives particular credibility to the role. He addresses the audience directly, and with a combination of sincerity and anger, he gives surprising topicality to the content. Without compromising and with simplicity he conveys an expansive and complicated text, giving the words weight and clarity through reflection and hesitating pensiveness.
This year's best leading actor award goes to Torbjørn Eriksen."
"Join in when Rogaland Theatre celebrates the dramatic heavyweight Shakespeare's 450 year anniversary. To this very day Shakespeare makes blood boil and hearts sing in theatre attenders all over the world and we hail him with Hamlet anno 2014 as directed by Kjersti Horn."
