Klockriketeatern, a respected theatre company that performs in the Swedish-speaking part of Helsinki, had a big success with Mr. Green får besök. The translation was done by Martin Kurtén, who played Mr. Green.
The director was Kristin Olsoni, holding the umbrella below, with her team for Mr. Green får besök.
Ross was played by Joachim Wigelius, pictured below. The play was so popular that it was revived several times.
“What a performance Klockriketeatern treats us to! It has to become the theatrical success of the spring in town. It’s the Nordic premiere of the play written by the American Jeff Baron. It has received the KulturPreis Europa in 2001. It’s not surprising. This is a play with its arms full of warmth. One reason for theatre is to increase our understanding of ourselves and other people’s lives. This story succeeds in that, without a shallow happy end. We carry with us a peaceful feeling of trust, that the star of goodness shines somewhere.”
