Svømmende dyr i det nordnorske hav* (Swimming animals in the Northern Norwegian sea)

Svømmende dyr i det nordnorske hav* (Swimming animals in the Northern Norwegian sea) (1972) was a theatre production by The Arctic Theatre, a collage with texts by Cornelius Moe, Petter Dass, Cora Sandel, Jonas Lie, Knut Hamsun, Regine Normann and other Northern Norwegian writers. The production was performed on tour.

Jan Bull directed it.

Svømmende dyr i det nordnorske hav replaced a planned (and cancelled) production of Kent Andersson and Bernt Bratt's text Hjemmet (literally: The home). As such, it was produced during a short period of time.

Svømmende dyr i det nordnorske hav was broadcast as radio theatre by Norwegian Broadcasting Corporation.
