Deutsches Theater, Oslo
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Deutsches Theater was a theater in Oslo, Norway which existed between 1941 and 1944.
It was established on 1 January 1941 following an order from Josef Terboven, and the first performance was held on 22 April 1941 in Nationaltheatret. Having later moved to new localities, its premiere performance, the operetta The Land of Smiles by Franz Léhar, was held on 7 June the same year. The theatre closed in September 1944 because the resources needed to be channeled elsewhere in the German war machine.
