We Who Are Hundred won The Hedda Award 2010 in the category of production of the year.

The jury gave the following reason:

"Productions of recently written foreign contemporary drama are not what we experience the most at Norwegian stages. The more of a joy is it that this year's winner of this category is just that, a rather recent text - an original, uninhibited and merry comedy which in addition appeals to a wide audience.

A young and relatively new director, educated abroad, has signed a playful, transparently light and positively theatrical production in which the serious undertones of the text are promoted, near unnoticeably, but still with assurance. In dazzling interaction on equal footing, precisely paced and with unyielding nerve, three wonderful actors convey the diverse personality of the human being. The stage design is effectful and the costumes invite to using the imagination. What more can one demand?

The award for production of the year goes to We Who Are Hundred at Rogaland Theatre."
