"Playful and serious about time and the road to death, but mostly about life"

"A rare good staging of a novel. You become even a little happier in life after seeing this performance at the Norske Teatret"
-Dagsavisen
"...turns cancer into a life-affirming notion of what we make of our lives and the time we have."
