Sverre Næss (actor)

Sverre Næss (18 August 1881 – 28 January 1960) was a Norwegian stage actor.

He was employed at Den Nationale Scene in 1916.[1] His 25th anniversary was marked in 1942, in which Næss played Old Foldal in Ibsen's John Gabriel Borkman.[2][3] During the German occupation of Norway he was also a political prisoner in Bergen from 25 May to 7 July 1941.[4]

After the war, he was acting director of Den Nationale Scene until the autumn of 1946.[5] In 1947 he left Den National Scene, having reached DNS' designated retirement age of 65, but found work at Rogaland Teater.[6] His last and 299th role at Den Nationale Scene was as Arvik in Bjørnson's When the New Wine Blooms, which also became his first role at Rogaland Teater,[7][8] playing against a young Aud Schønemann as Alvilde. Next, Næss and Schønemann played in Sartre's The Respectful Prostitute.[9]

After the stint at Rogaland Teater, he made a surprise return to Den Nationale Scene and played several roles.[10][11] A portrait painted by Olav Ansgar Larsen was commissioned by Den Nationale Scene.[12]

Sverre Næss died in January 1960 in Bergen, being survived by a wife and two daughters.[13]
