"The production Tordis + Alfred = Toralv offers insights into the theatre family and how it was to grow up with the famous actors Tordis Maurstad from Kristiansund and Alfred Maurstad from Nordfjord as parents. In their home, everything was about theatre. Roles were rehearsed in intense interaction with the actors' own lives and feelings. Still, that the son was to become an actor was not a given.
The production tells the story of how this happened and how Toralv Maurstad's own career as an actor developed.
With a music-loving mother and a father who was a virtuoso on Hardanger fiddle, music was always central onstage and in the home. Pianist Rune Alver is responsible for the musical contributions to the performance."
