At the launch of the report and the feasibility study, you heard that we are in talks with real estate developers Oxer Eiendom about Kabelgata in Hovinbyen in Oslo. Here you can read an article about their plans for the entire area, and how they want to create a cultural powerhouse where the tower will be an important part.
Kloden Teater is building a new theater building at Kabelgata 19, scheduled to open in 2027. This will create a new hub for performing arts with modern facilities for production, rehearsals and artistic work. The building will house two stages, rehearsal rooms, production rooms, workshops, meeting rooms and office space.
The government is cutting operating support for Kloden theater, writes Klassekampen on October 16, – just eight months before the theater opens a brand new building.
It was a great day for Kloden theatre when the foundation stone of the new national theatre house for children and youth was laid in Kabelgata in Oslo on Wednesday, June 24. Around 150 invited guests filled the construction site, which was surrounded by excavators, construction cranes and raw concrete, and under captivating band music from the Løren and Refstad school music band, we marked the start of what will become one of Norway's most important cultural buildings for children and youth.
For director and artistic director Claire deWangen, the location is more than a frame for a performance. It is the very starting point for the story. In Croquemort, the audience is invited into Østre Aker Church to participate as extras in a staged funeral in a space where reality and theater blend into each other.
