Beautiful building in Oslo, Norway. Our friends took us here while we were visiting this…read moreincredible city. Did we watch a performance here? Unfortunately, the answer was no because time would not allow it. Did not even go inside. :( They said that our stay in Oslo needs to be longer next time. Apparently, there are a few guided tours to choose from for exploring the National Theater and learning more about its history. I think it was built in 1899. It is a stunning tourist attraction. The outside of this building is simply lovely. The fountain close by is quite wonderful also. Maybe one day we will go inside. Our friends say that you cannot truly appreciate it til you walk in there.

Didn't see a show here but did a behind the scenes tour, which I highly recommend. The interior…read morespace is just as compelling as the exterior and the whole place is absolutely gigantic. The back of house space is especially impressive, as you might expect. Also, if you have the chance to eat in their cafe, I highly recommend it. The day we were there, the special was halibut and it was fantastic.

If you cannot follow Norwegian, it's best to wait and keep an eye out for international guest performers, where they switch their shows into English. The shows are improv - that is, getting suggestions from the audience to act out great scenes. They run different sets during the week, e.g. on wednesdays "Micetro" is an improv duel between 12 players; on fridays "Murder She Improvised" is a long-form storytelling of a murder mystery - all improvised. If you haven't seen an improv show before, you should go here!

A cute little theatre in the city centre of Oslo. Nothing too extravagant but that is what you want…read moreto avoid with this. I was here for the krimfestival, the festival of crime novels. In this special and free event we were shown around the various hidden rooms. On the second floor there is a room that has a bar, in this case it was part of the show. And downstairs there is also a hidden little room which was part of the play that looked more like a hangout area. The main theatre is quite small, one of the smallest theatres I have been to. But it has a character with its old decor and feeling to it. The acoustics are quite good. The actors with no microphones were heard very clearly. However the sight was a bit worse. If you have a fairly tall person sitting in front of you, you might have some issues having a clear view of the whole stage. Recommend it to everyone! Especially on events like this.
