Jon Fosse

Västanå Teater presents a exciting, poetic and peculiar version of the Poetic Edda. Recorded at Riksteatern during the spring of 2020.

We follow Henrik Ibsen throughout his life. From early shame over his father's bankruptcy, via bitterness over the then conservative public life, to his older years as a national institution that tourists gathered to watch on their way to their very punctual, daily lunch at the Grand Café in Oslo.
