Biography
Biography
In 1889, Johan Fahlstrøm married the actress Alma Isabella Bosse, who was the sister of the actress Harriet Bosse and sociologist Ewald Bosse. In 1897, the couple opened the Central Theater in Christiania (now Oslo) with both concert and vaudeville venues. Fahlstrøm appeared in a variety of roles and his wife served as director. From 1902 onward, Harald Otto (1865–1928) was the theater manager and owner. Fahlstrøm featured a farewell performance of The Pillars of Society by Henrik Ibsen in 1911, after which he decided to retire from the stage. He died in the Titanic disaster in 1912. Because they had no other children, they willed their fortune to the Norwegian Sea Rescue Society, which used the funds to purchase rescue boats that were named in honor of the couple's son.
