We are in Vår Frelsers gravlund, a cemetery in the capital city of Norway, mid-November
1918. We are about to witness the casual encounter between two titans of the Norwegian
Arts, Edvard Munch and Gustav Vigeland. They have been rivals in the arts since ... as far as
they can remember; they have been rivals in love in their Parisian bohemian adventures;
and now they are about to ruthlessly compete for the top position in the hall of fame of
Norwegian arts. Surprisingly, as they lock horns, a third character appears - is it Ibsen, the
genius? no, it is not.
Characters: Gustav Vigeland, sculptor; Edvard Munch, painter; and The Stone, carrara
marble monolith with the outlines of a hammer engraved on it, presiding over Ibsen's grave,
Mr. Bygmester Solness.
