Press coverage

Lillian Bikset, Musikalsk minnebok med lydspor fra livet (literally: A musical book of memories, with a soundtrack from life, Dagbladet 17.02.2018:

"Nine writers. Five actors. A band of four. Heim* (Home) is the first part of a new series of productions by Hordaland Theatre, a chronicle of recent history in Western Norway. It sounds like an effort of proportions. Yet, the main impression left by the first of the productions is that the theatre has made the task into an easy effort. Short, sketch-like episodes, often of general character, have been combined with familiar songs, mostly American, not translated hits from the decade in question."
