Aftenposten:
"Merry and revealing satire with a crooked glance towards the bourgeois existence and society life. Toril Goksøyr and Camilla Martens are not afraid to go new ways."
Klassekampen:
"Surefire revelation of a self-righteous, but limited upper class. But also of the rich, well-meaning Norway."
Kulturkompasset:
"Toril Goksøyr and Camilla Martens are known for working with documentary theatre. They intertwine fiction and reality with a political edge."
