M: Tarjei, from Skam to Grease, how will this go?
T: It’s gonna be an awesome show i’ll tell you. It’ll be totally amazing.
M: You’re playing Doody. Who is Doody?
T: Doody is in the T-birds, which is the guys gang. But he’s not as cool as Danny and Kenickie. He’s more of a loser. But he tries to toughen up, together with Roger. They look up to the cool guys in the gang.
M: How good are you at singing?
T: I never dare to like, sing for real in front of people. It’s more in the shower and stuff. I see myself as a okay singer, and it also is about meaning what you sing, and just push forward, not hold back. And I think I can do that on stage.
M: which song is the most beautiful in Grease?
T: I think “Hopelessly devoted to you” is lovely
M: To see you sing Hopelessly devoted to you, I think THAT is lovely.
T: Too bad I don’t play Sandy then! It’ll be next time, haha.
M: How will it be, now that Skam is ending, to go out in new territory?
T: Now I’ve done four seasons so I’m thinking it’s good to move on, but it will be so sad. I think I have one filming left, and maybe i’ll start crying or something.
M: Skam has made the whole world obsessed with you, People are coming to see you from all over the world, will it maybe be nice that that pressure will ease a little?
T: Yeah maybe it will get less and less, and it would.. maybe be a little nice.
But at the same time, I see the people who comes as a sign of love.
M: How is it when you walk down the street? Do you wear a hoodie with the hood up and hide a little or are you walking upright thinking “Come here and take selfies”?
T: It depends on where I am. On the morning bus nobody cares for example.
Then i’m chilling, listening to music. But If I go down the middle of Karl Johan, then I’m a little fucked

Tarjei Sandvik Moe (18) will sing and dance in his new project: He will play in the musical “Grease”.
You have to wait until January 2018, but then you can watch Tarjei Sandvik Moe at Chateau Neuf in Oslo. In the hall that takes about 1000 people in the audience he will play as Doody in “Grease”. After going through open audition with nearly 800 hopeful people, he got a role in the musical.
- I love musicals! That was what made me want to do acting in the first place.
It has been clear to me that I want to do it during my career, so it was fun that it happened so early now. I’m very happy! Says Moe to VG.
For most people, he is so far-known as Isak in the success Skam - a role he became Gulluten nominated for, for the Best Actor, and won the TV-moment of the year together with colleague Henrik Holm. Now the recording of last season of Skam soon over.
“It’s sad, but it’s exciting to have time to do other things,” says the 18-year-old.
“I’m going to play a real idiot, Doody,” says an enthusiastic Tarjei
- He’s one of T-Birds. He and Roger are the losers of the cool gang. Doody is a sensitive type alone in his room, but when he is with the guys he is playing cool , even though he doesn’t quite manage the coolness that Danny has naturally. I think it’s a very fun role, “he says.
- How are you working on it?
“Maybe I’m a little like that myself - I’m trying to be cool even if i’m not that cool. But oh my god, it’s a musical and fun(?) people, so you can play it out physically. You don’t have to go Stanislavsky on Doody, says Moe and laughs.
The Russian Konstantine Stanislavsky is known to have developed the forerunner of the acting technique “method acting". It will not necessarily be that in “Grease”.
- You can try to make it fun and try to have fun when playing in a musical - it’s very important. And not least to practice voice, dance and endurance. I think it seems so tiring to play a long musical, admits the young actor.
“I think it’s quite sick to dance and sing so much in one stretch. And then you should remember to play too. So maybe I have to do some jogging or run in stairs. Perhaps, he adds and laughs.
It’s asked if there will be so many long “Summer Nights” for Moe in the future. He is “Hopelessly Devoted” to acting - and school.
Wednesday he finished the final exam of the year - written math, and he has one year left in upper secondary school.
- How do you balance your career and school?
- It alot! I’m almost never at home because I’m running or taking a taxi everywhere. I go to work and school, but it’s fine, actually. Next year I will take all subjects plus Italian afternoon classes. I’m afraid, but Carl Martin Eggesbø, who plays Eskild, has lived in Italy, so I’ll try to get some help from him. I will use all I have of Italian contacts and strive not to fail, said Moe.
In addition, he has “Grease” and possibly more projects he can’t talk about yet.
- That sounds a lot!
- I have no choice - I have to leave with a diploma! And I didn’t manage to do language this year, it crashed. So now I just have to do it, he says.
- Have you considered taking a break?
- No.
His goal is to be able to live by and work with acting - taking education in acting and possibly writing.
- How do you choose when you think of roles in the future?
“I choose what I think I’m going to have fun doing. And then it’s nice to do a lot of variety. I want to play different genres and different types of roles, "says Moe.
Skam colleague Holm recently signed an agreement with the Panorama agency, who stated that he would not play more "gay characters” for a while. VGTV’s Morten Hegseth Riiber started discussing whether “gay” is a role or not.
- What do you think about that debate?
- I do not think gay is a type of role. I hope they don’t actually think playing gay is a role, too often it’s totally irrelevant if the role is gay or not, he says.
- Where do you see yourself in five years?
“It’s nice for me if I can work in Norway, I think it’s a nice thing here. I think I’m a pretty lucky 18 year old actor. There are not so many people playing in a series, film and theater and in addition go to school.
- It also sounds tiresome …
- No. The most weary thing is to be bored, that’s why I do something all the time. If I don’t have anything to do, I get tired.
Director Sterri: - It was "wow”!
“There’s no disadvantage that people who are in it have contributed big, great things to television. But here it’s the talent that gets you the job, and Tarjei did it with shine, emphasizes Tom Sterri (56).
He’s the director of "Grease”, as he has been it both in 1999 and in 2008. And he will spend the summer updating the 2018 version.
- Why did Tarjei get the role of Doody?
- First, he has had three years of audition with three seasons of Skam. So we know very well that he is a good actor. We also confirmed that when he did something different on audition. He “nailed” that character right away. And he showed that he can deliver humor, Sterri points out, who reveals that he is a Skam fan.
He was most surprised at Moe’s ability to sing and dance.
- We didn’t know anything about that. Then he comes in and makes a pretty difficult song. And he just sounded good and had such a touch and “feeling”. You can tell that he loves to sing. It was “wow”. It worked so good, says the director and continues:
“He has also had many dance auditions, and although he could not be on the first day, he just threw himself into it, and we saw that the rhythm is there. It was only positive surprises. Tarjei has a scene authority that is completely insane. When he’s standing there, you’ll see him - regardless of whether you’ve seen him on TV or not.
