THE
EMIGRANTS! Many thanks to the performers, musicians and
organizers who brought the play
"The Emigrants"
to the Tre Lag Stevne in Fergus Falls, Aug. 7, 2008. It was a wonderful modern theatrical version of the story, using music,
song and speech (in English). The sold-out performance was very
professionally performed and well-received by the audience. Many commented
on the superb quality of the music and the singers. Gunhild Øyangen and
her committee from Rissa and Lensvik deserve many thanks for arranging for
the play to come to America!

It is vital in
all cultural life to maintain a link between the present and the
past. If there is anything that history makes clear it is this, that
when a people becomes interested in its past life, seeks to acquire
knowledge in order to better understand itself, it always
experiences an awakening in life. - Ole Edvart Rølvaag
