Pinocchio recounts the tale of Geppetto's little puppet, who, through magic, gains life and sets off on incredible and perilous escapades in his quest to become human. Along his journey, he encounters both kind-hearted fairies and crafty beings bent on tricks. Becoming a genuine human proves difficult amidst the cruelty and opportunism of those seeking to deceive and take advantage of him.

The Royal Danish Playhouse

Philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche's meeting with Richard Wagner is the start of an intense friendship and an equally dramatic break. In the newly written musical theatre performance by Joakim Sten, we meet actor Jonas Karlsson who, while hiking on a Swiss alpine peak, reevaluates a musical genius.

The philosopher Nietzsche based his entire thinking on music. When he met the great composer Richard Wagner as a young man, he was overwhelmed – both artistically and intellectually. Wagner befriended him, had him write lyrics that praised Wagner himself, and shaped him into his ideological disciple. But as Nietzsche began to see through his mentor and despise his growing anti-Semitism, the questions grew: Where will this lead? What kind of world will this create?

Nietzsche versus Wagner

The Folk Opera

In the opera cabaret Jag är Ulla Winblad, the 18th century's most legendary and celebrated Stockholm woman gets to play the lead role in her own story. Behind the Folkoperan" class="css-u850">Folkoperan's anniversary performance is the super trio Klas Östergren, who wrote the libretto, the composer Andrea Tarrodi and the director Nora Nilsson. On stage, the actors Björn Kjellman and Hanna Dorsin meet with the Folkoperan's soloists and orchestra.

When an elderly Bellman (Björn Kjellman) seeks out “Ulla” (Hanna Dorsin) to say goodbye and perhaps reconcile, we are thrown back to the days of youth and the brutal 18th century Stockholm. Among bustling taverns and stinking alleys, the young beauty Maria Kristina Kjellström “Maja-Stina” (Tessan-Maria Lehmussaari) and the young star Carl Michael Bellman (Wiktor Sundqvist) meet.
