Kungliga Operan

Mozart's opera favorite with music you recognize or quickly become seduced by. Join the search for love and freedom with Tamino and Pamina, Papageno and Papagena and, of course, the Queen of the Night. The Magic Flute, directed by Ole Anders Tandberg, is an imaginative and fast-paced performance that features the greatest hits in opera history – and everyone sings in Swedish!

The Magic Flute

The immortal, impossible love story told from a different perspective. When Mats Ek interprets Shakespeare's classic, the complex conflict is seen through Juliet's eyes.  

Julia & Romeo , in Ek's characteristic interpretation, has become a modern classic about family, love and the fight for freedom. Set to Tchaikovsky's music, arranged by Anders Högstedt, the work has been a success worldwide since its premiere in 2013 when it was created forRoyal Ballet

Juliet & Romeo

I've always found it both fun and challenging to do something more than just a straight-up, regular concert when I get the chance to face an audience. Over the years, I've wrestled with glitchy slide projectors, had heated dialogues with myself in the form of a life-size cardboard doll, rode in a triumphal chariot in gladiator armor, and I've even toured with a real therapist who had therapy with me on stage between songs.

In 2023, the book OM Niklas Strömstedt was published , which is an autobiographical journey through both his private life and his more public career, and while working on that book, the idea was born to also let it become the basis for a stage performance.
