Fosse festival
Welcome to DIFF - the fourth International Fosse festival!
In 2023, Jon Fosse received the Nobel Prize in Literature for his innovative drama and prose, which "gives voice to the unspeakable". From September 5 to 13, we invite you to a Fosse feast at Det Norske Teatret, with Fosse's writing as a starting point.
There will be international guest performances, conversations, innovative productions, world premieres of new Fosse plays and an exciting festival profile of international stature.
Get to know the diverse writing of Jon Fosse - be surprised by new interpretations of his plays - and get to know new voices that follows in the wake of our great author and playwright.
The festival is organized by Det Norske Teatret and Det Norske Samlaget.
