Biography

Tangstad made her debut in 1954 in the musical South Pacific at the Central Theater, where she later worked from 1957 to 1958. After that she was at the People's Theater (Folketeatret) from 1958 to 1959 and at the Oslo New Theater from 1959 to 1970, after which she worked freelance. On the stage, she particularly made a name for herself as Sofia in Anton Chekhov's Platanov, Hazel in Eugene O'Neill's Mourning Becomes Electra, Helen in Shakespeare's Twelfth Night, Mrs. Krane in Kranes konditori, and Guriana in Oskar Braaten's Ungen.[1]

She also appeared in a number of films, and in 1958 she played the leading role in the film I slik en natt as a young doctor who is at the head of a rescue operation in which the children of a Jewish orphanage in Oslo are saved from the Gestapo during the Second World War.[4] She also played one of the two main roles in Før frostnettene (1965). Tangstad is also particularly remembered for Brent jord (1969), Skulle det dukke opp flere lik er det bare å ringe (1970), and Den sommeren jeg fylte 15 (1976), as well as several films about the Olsen Gang. On television, she appeared in the miniseries Nitimemordet, the series Benoni og Rosa, and two episodes of Fleksnes Fataliteter ("Visittid" 1972 and "Trafikk & Panikk" 1974). She also provided the voice of Maid Marian in the Norwegian-language version of the cartoon Robin Hood.[5]
