Det Norske Teatret (English: Norwegian Theater) is a theatre in Oslo. The theatre was founded in 1912, after an initiative from Hulda Garborg and Edvard Drablψs. It opened in 1913, touring with two plays, Ervingen by Ivar Aasen and Rationelt Fjψsstell by Hulda Garborg. Its first official performance was Ludvig Holberg's comedy Jeppe pε berget, with Haakon VII of Norway and the prime minister of Norway among the spectators. Hulda Garborg was the first board manager, and Rasmus Rasmussen was the first theatre director. The theatre primarily performs plays written in or translated into Nynorsk.
