Bjørnstjerne Bjørnson, and in The Death of Åse from Peer Gynt, text by Henrik Ibsen, both
with music written by Edvard Grieg.

was Bokken Lasson’s cabaret at Christiania Tivoli, which opened 1912, March 1. This was
the first season’s last day. The programme was given both as a gala performance at 5 pm,
and as a farewell performance at 8.45 pm.
Dyremyrskogen Summer Theatre. The opening day of the 1912 season. KF played the
piano to the comedies Sivert og hans betenkeligheter (Sivert og hans Betænkeligheder) by
Peter Egge and Ektemannens representant (Ægtemandens Repræsentant) by Erik Bøgh. KF
played interval music. In the last mentioned comedy, which also included songs, she
accompanied the singers/actors. KF had also arranged a great deal of the music.
Dyremyrskogen Summer Theatre was established 1909 by the cinema owner Ellef
Guttormsen, who made it a tradition to give cabarets, shows, revues and comedies. The
local revue author was M. B. Landstad, grandson of the great hymn writer. In 1912 the
actor Pehr Qværnstrøm from Oslo was engaged as director. He brought with him from Oslo
August Schønemann, Emmy Worm-Müller, Gunlaug Lund, Jørgen Fjerdingstad and others.
KF’s responsibilities this summer were to be a singer soloist at the concerts, pianist at the
concerts, pianist at the theatre and making music arrangement to the different comedies.
The Summer Theatre’s season lasted till 1912, September 1.

both as the “Summer Revue 1912” and ”Smaabykomedie from meget gamle Dage med
Sang og Dans i 2 glade Revyakter”.
