The summer in Sweden has been warmer than ever before and it is not a lot than can make me go inside when I can spend the evening at the beach, but when Andrew Lloyd has given permission to a feminist interpretation of Jesus Christ Superstar, I thought I should check this out. It was as hot inside the Eric Ericson Hall as outside, but since I spent the past few weeks acclimatizing myself to the heat spending all days at the beach or in the lake Malaren, which is 26 degrees, that was not a problem.

Mamma Mia - Here we go again is a real feel good movie and if you loved Mamma Mia I'm sure you will love this too. The story in Mamma Mia is not that strong and the story in the sequel is weaker but it doesn't matter as it is build around the music of Abba, songs we all know and love.

A lot of people have seen Mamma Mia the movie and are looking forward to the sequel, Mamma Mia Here We Go Again. Well tonight the wait was over for some lucky fans as it was a special opening night in Stockholm at the Cinema Filmstaden Sergel. A huge crowd had gather waiting for some of the cast to attend the blue carpet prior to entering the cinema.

During summer most theatres are closed in Sweden but instead the open air theatres opens. In Stockholm the communal theatre brings musicals, plays and music events to different stages around Stockholm as Parkteatern, and it is for free! It is very popular so be there on time in order to get a seat. People bring hampers or buy something to eat from the food truck while they wait for the show to start.

Today I was invited to a special press day at China Theatre when they announced the cast to Ghost the Musical. The show was hosted by Kattis Ahlstrom, a well know Swedish TV host. For some time we been discussing who we wanted to be in the cast and I was so happy to hear that it was my dream team for the roles of Sam and Carl. And the rest of the cast is absolutely fantastic as well.
