Experimental theatre!
Bergman writes about two upcoming plays at Mäster Olofsgården.
About the text
Bergman writes the following text about The Golden Chariot and The Hangman:
This evening of theatre is intended for SFP and their guests. There are two options: either you will be there or you won't. Our intention is to present works that are not staged by professional theatres. [...] Our greatest strengths go up in smoke. We wish to do our part to honestly present these worthy pieces. Your attention shall drive us onwards.
[Note: SFP owned Mäster Olofsgården]
