This article explores a possible methodological framework for investigating verbal theatre language. Using an interdisciplinary approach, combining theatre studies with sociolinguistics, it is possible to increase knowledge about conventions and changes in Norwegian theatre language in the 20th century. I will demonstrate how sociolinguistics can provide a broader understanding of the development in Norwegian theatre, through investigating socially meaningful variation in theatre language.
