Deutsches Theater (Oslo)

Deutsches Theater was a German-language theater in Oslo, Norway which existed between 1941 and 1944, during the German occupation of Norway.

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.

[1] Its premiere performance, the operetta The Land of Smiles by Franz Lehár, 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.
