“Party therapy” for Laughter

A couple of weeks ago, Vågenes came with the news that there would be no more seasons of Party Therapy. The characters, on the other hand, will live on.

Vågenes tells Dagbladet that he wants to take the characters from the popular series to a solo show.

– It has been incredibly fun to make something that so many have had a relationship with. It feels right to end with the season that is out now. Now new projects await, and I look forward to being on stage as these characters on “Laughter” in October, Vågenes told Dagbladet.

NRK’s ​​editor-in-chief Christina Rezk Resar says that this will not be the last thing Vågenes does for the channel.

– It was right to end “Party Therapy” now. We felt a little emptied of theme. Now we are going to accelerate further, so he is by no means finished in NRK, Resar told Dagbladet.

Randi’s brother

Vågen’s role in «Familie Lykke» August is the brother of Randi, the center of the series. Randi is played by Kristine Riis, known from the series «The Vikings».

– There are many Randier out there, and I admire them. We have all been more at home because of the corona, many have lived closer with their own family. And although families may look different, we are probably more alike than we think. I hope people who watch can feel that community, says Kristine Riis to Kampanje.
