A musical comedy about the most common way of finding a partner in our time: online dating. A delightful, touching and funny story about finding true love.
The story takes place in the early 2000s when online dating has become widespread and singles Frank and Carol discover that romance is just a mouse click away. Via the site eLove.com, they are matched with each other and begin online dating.

At home at their laptops, behind their aliases in the dating site's chat rooms, they dare to open up and share their innermost thoughts with each other. They talk about their ex's shortcomings, talk about relationships and feelings and get closer and closer to each other.

Grandma sometimes doesn't know who she is. However, her granddaughter does. Together they become detectives who follow grandma's tracks to find her again. There are tracks everywhere. In the greenhouse. In the garden. In the kitchen.

Today I Don't Know Who I Am is about when your old person gets very old. And what happens in the old person then. But also how the young person, which is you, can help remember. Or maybe just be there.

"You forget that you forget," says the child.

Based on Ida Sundin Asp's fantastic picture book "Today I Don't Know Who I Am," we end up in a game. A detective story. A journey with an old person and a child to find what is sometimes forgotten. Together they form the hub of the story and the search that can help both heal and play.

Today I don't know who I am.

A fast-paced and acrobatic circus adventure for the whole family.
Something is not right at the circus. Director Linn tries to keep her resourceful assistant in check, but it doesn't work that way. How can she appear in two places at the same time? One moment she's hoisted into the air, the next she's standing in the middle of the ring with a new trick, a new costume and a mischievous smile on her face. The audience barely has time to blink before the assistant - whoops! - surprises again.

What's really going on is only revealed on the spot. But one thing is certain: everything is not as it seems...

So bring the whole big family, the group of friends or the neighbours and throw yourselves into this colourful circus adventure where acrobatics, humour and confusions take turns. Here aerial acrobatics, para acrobatics, tightrope walking and clowning come together in an imaginative treat for all ages.

But what is to be born?

The story of Dan Andersson's grandmother, told by his granddaughter.
Together with fiddler Andreas Jakobsson's cello, the story unfolds, the notes and the words side by side.

The completely true story of Anna-Stina, a widow with five children, who is laid off from her smoking shed. Without food, she drags tar sticks on a sled through the forest to sell in the mine for three öre each. She tunes the mill. Loses. But gets an idea ...

A few voices from the audience:
"We forgot to breathe...."

"Your loving description of this woman grabbed hold of us all. And the music with its folk tone and a professional at the instrument was a different and suggestive experience."

"Yes, the whole you managed to create and convey from a bygone era with much suffering and difficulty, was only positive after all."

A journey through Swedish musical heritage in all the colors of jazz

Among paint cans, wrenches and wood axes you will find four musicians who, with artisanal elegance, screw up Swedish pop and song classics and repaint them in all the colors of jazz. 
Let them take you on a swinging journey through Swedish musical heritage. They offer a handful of newly renovated popular musical gems from the Swedish songbook from then to now.

Folkets Hus och Parker and Konserthuset Stockholm proudly present Stora sångspektaklet på bio – an interactive family performance with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra and Yria. In the performance, children get to sing along to songs both long and short, songs that most people know and some new ones, which we learn along the way. Yria consists of musicians and educators who have recorded albums and films and who have toured all over the country with performances aimed at younger children. The Philharmonic is led by the young Norwegian conductor Ingunn Korsgård Hagen and hosted by Madeleine Wittmark.

The Great Singing Spectacle

Ullared community center, Falkenberg

A dance and theater performance for children (2-7 years) about biodiversity that wants to inspire you to become a mini-field biologist and go out into nature to look at plants, butterflies and small insects.
The White-winged Warbler, Little Blue and the Willow Tree live on a forest slope together with the leaves, the ants and the Flower. They take care of their home and the little magpie. At night, when everyone is sleeping, the Moon and the frogs sing for the Flower. Are the Moon and the Flower a little dear?

And did you know that everyone in nature cooperates? That the larvae of the blue-winged warbler live with the ants in the anthill in the winter and that the White-winged Warbler and the Willow Tree's flowers are vital for the bees when they wake up early in the spring?

Nils turns 5 and gets to wish for whatever he wants in the toy store. And he knows exactly what he wants: A Barbie in a pink ball gown! Suddenly, dad doesn't want Nils to choose for himself at all. In the toy store, dad tries by all means to get Nils to choose a gun instead. Barbie-Nils and the Gun Problem highlights issues of identity and gender, courage and children's rights, but also the difficulty of being a parent, in this case a single father who wants to do everything right, but who in his efforts misses the most important thing – listening to his child's wishes.

"I never asked to be born. One day I just existed. You have to do something meaningful with your life. Big or small things. You have to make sure you have some fun in the meantime."
Brel's Crazy Carousel is an emotional, frenetic and humorous performance where we get to know the Franco-Belgian artist Jaques Brel in his final confrontation with his life choices. He lived only 49 years old, but lived an intense life. Perhaps he carried with him a vague feeling that life will be short, that it is only on loan. The monologue performed by actor Helena Nizic is based on interviews with Brel and is interwoven with his songs accompanied by a string quartet.
