Oslo Nye Teater
Rosenkrantz' gate 10, 0159 Oslo 2 h 30 min
The theatre on Rosenkrantz' gate usually has shows that are easy to get into, like musicals or comedies. It’s not as heavy or serious as the National Theatre. Since it’s right downtown, it’s a short walk to a bar after the curtain falls. The venue is nice, but the vibe is relaxed.
