Chat scandal in Alingsås becomes theater

An investigation by journalists Anna Ekström and Michael Verdicchio into three municipal politicians in Alingsås will be staged as a play at the Kulturhuset Stadsteatern in Stockholm, writes Göteborgs-Posten.

The two journalists recently received the Guldspaden award for "Maktens chattar" (The Chats of Power), where they revealed how three municipal politicians fought for power in secret chat rooms. Now Nanna Olasdotter Hallberg will both write the script and direct the play about the chat scandal in Alingsås.

A good group chat is a bit like a comedy ensemble, she explains to GP.

And it's very bad for leaks. That kind of jargon looks terrible from the outside.

The play will premiere on September 5th.
