Gustav Wilhelm Selmer (1814 - 1875)
Gustav Wilhelm Selmer (1814–1875) was a Norwegian-Danish actor manager.[1]
He succeeded Jacob Mayson as the manager of the theater company which staffed the Trøndelag Teater in 1839–1848. As such he played a major part in the theater history of Trondheim, which had no other permanent theatre in a period when Norway was almost entirely dominated by travelling theatre companies from Denmark. Many major figures of the contemporary Norwegian theatre was employed in his company. He also made successful tours around Norway.
