This Week’s Flashback -Admiral von Schreiber in "Sound of Music" 2008
A recent flashback this time. I was amazed to discover that it is now exactly a year since I started work on "The Sound of Music" at Edderkoppen Theatre in Oslo. Can it really be a whole year? It seems like yesterday. Perhaps because the memories of this production were mostly extremely good and happy, except for the production company going bankrupt on New Year’s Eve and us not getting paid. (This might explain the severe expression on the picture, though I was playing a German nazi admiral). However, all musicals must have happy endings, especially Rodgers & Hammerstein ones, and just a week ago we finally recouped the pay we were owed. So the hills are once again full of the sound of music, and the prospect of holidays. We did 124 performances in all, and I loved every single one of them –except the time my trousers fell down on stage in the middle of my important little scene ...but that’s a whole story on its own!
