who was he, the man convicted of treason who never stopped claiming his innocence? was he a master spy or a misunderstood idealist? a traitor to his country or an unorthodox peace mediator? a man with a grandiose belief in his own importance, or simply a diplomat caught in the storm between east and west?

in a world where facts drift and reality is manipulated, the ensemble tries to understand both him and themselves, in an explosion of satire, politics, and emotion.

treholt is a newly written, large-scale production – a musical state-of-readiness exercise in moral grey zones.
