The Theatre War (Swedish: Teaterkriget), Cowberry War, Cranberry War or Lingonberry War (Norwegian: Tyttebærkrigen, Danish: Tyttebærkrigen), was a brief war between Denmark–Norway and Sweden, starting on 24 September 1788, formally lasting until 9 July 1789. Although the decision to launch the attack was taken in Denmark, the majority of the attacking soldiers were Norwegians from the Norwegian army.
The attack was directed towards the region known as Bohuslän in Sweden, and was supposed to act as a diversion to relieve Russia, who was an ally of Denmark–Norway and had recently been attacked by Sweden (Gustav III's Russian War). This forced Denmark–Norway to honour their alliance between the two states that had been signed in 1773.
^Sundberg, Ulf (2002). Svenska krig 1521-1814 (in Swedish) (2nd ed.). Stockholm: Hjalmarson & Högberg. p. 353. ISBN 9789189080140. Danmark tvingas inleda detta krig enligt förplikteser med Ryssland. Danskarna måste den 9 juli, under hårt diplomatiskt tryck från England och Preussen, avge en neutralitetsdeklaration. Med tanke på att Danskarna tvingas ur kriget kan man med viss tvekan kategorisera utfallet som en svensk seger.
^Harrison, Dick (21 April 2016). "Vad var Tyttebärskriget för något?". Svenska Dagbladet. Ett vapenstillestånd ingicks, och den 12 november gav danskarna slaget förlorat och tågade tillbaka till Norge. Formellt avslutades kriget utan landavträdelser för någondera parten i juli 1789.
