At the height of his career, Swedish conductor Daniel Dareus collapses on stage during a concert. He decides to radically change his life and returns to his childhood village. But even there, music won't let him go: He takes over the direction of the church choir in an unconventional yet successful way, making himself unpopular with the community. Against all odds, the choir grows, and with it, the self-confidence of its members. A heartwarming musical based on the successful Swedish film, set in turbulent times when the desire for unity is ever stronger.

As in heaven

While in Shakespeare's time feuding families stood in the way of the lovers, today it's rigid ideologies and their prejudices. Romeo and Juliet become Robin Hood and Wonder Woman. At least, that's how Steve and Kate meet at a costume party. He's a committed feminist, she's more into the macho type. So, after getting down on one knee, there's no engagement ring, but rather a sincere apology for the patriarchy. If that weren't contradictory enough, an emancipated political activist also encounters a Jewish religious conservative – the parents of the lovers. If one were to assume their differences are insurmountable, the opposite poles only attract each other more strongly. But perhaps their own children's wedding isn't the most appropriate moment for this. And to make the whole romantic spectacle even more complex, the ex-boyfriends get involved. And all of this is embodied by just two actors.
