Det norske Theater (Bergen)

Not to be confused with Det Norske Teatret.

Det norske Theater is a former theatre in Bergen, Norway, and regarded as the first pure Norwegian stage theatre. It opened in 1850 by primus motor, violinist Ole Bull, and closed in 1863, after a bankrupty.[1][2] The theatre's first production was Holberg's comedy Den Vægelsindede, and the opening was on 2 January 1850.[3] The theatre played at the old comedy house built in 1800.[4]

In 1876 the theatre Den Nationale Scene opened in the same building.[5]
