Oslo Nye Teater is a theater in Oslo, Norway. Its main venue is located at Rosenkrantz' gate 10, and the company is wholly owned by Oslo Municipality.
History
The establishment opened as Det Nye Teater on 26 February 1929. Architects Gudolf Blakstad (1893–1985) and Jens Gram Dunker (1898–1984) were engaged to design the building, creating a neoclassical structure. From 1994 to 1995, the audience area was upgraded under the direction of the architects Kristin Jarmund and Ola Helle.
In September 1959, Oslo Nye Teater resulted from a merger between Det Nye Teater and Folketeatret, which had operated independently since 1952.
Oslo Nye Teater operates from four stages: Oslo Nye Hovedscenen, Oslo Nye Centralteatret, Oslo Nye Trikkestallen, and Oslo Nye Teaterkjeller’n.
