Epiphany Concert 2022
From Verdi to Wagner via Leonard Bernstein and Kate Bush.

Acclaimed soprano Hanna Husáhr will treat us to Je veux vivre, an aria on the intoxication of youth from Gounod’s opera Romeo and Juliet, and indie vocalist Jennie Abrahamson will be singing her own material and covering Kate Bush. The host for the evening is Jessika Gedin from the talk show Babel, and the concert will be broadcast on the Swedish TV channel 2 SVT on January, Saturday 8 at 7:00 pm.

22 augusti180 krWho will save Alfie Atkins?Alfie sits alone in the apartment where he lives and feels lonely. He has moved to a new place and doesn’t know any of the other children there. Sometimes his imaginary friend Malcolm appears, and when they play together, Alfons always gets to decide — like being the train driver when they play trains.

A performance about friendship, based on Alfie Atkins, the beloved children’s book character created by Gunilla Bergström.Read more & tickets
