On September 17, Mia Skäringer will premiere “Mia, myself and I – the last meal”, the sequel to the acclaimed “Avig Maria – No more fucks to give”.
Is this just a last meal we get to see?
The title is definitely a nod to the fact that this will probably be my last performance, says Mia Skäringer about the new show, which is also a public 50th birthday party.
I struggle with chronic brain fatigue and pain, and it takes a toll on me both physically and mentally. That's why I'm doing a slightly more intimate performance this time.
In the Bible, Jesus is betrayed during the Last Supper. Who is your Judas?
I am my own Judas. The more wine I drink tonight, the more I reveal my sub-personalities, my double standards. Especially Tabitha, who is the part of me that refuses to shut up! She not only teaches old men and pigs a lesson, but also me when I flit away.
Rearview mirror show
Among this autumn's new premieres is "The Final Play - a Comical Work of Mourning", Henrik Schyffert's specially written play for veteran actors Marie Göranzon and Krister Henriksson in which they look back on their theatre careers and talk about old age.
Also going on tour is Bo Kaspers Orkester's rearview-mirror show "Il magnifico", a musical summary of the band's 35 years.
Two birthday parties
Like Mia Skäringer, Carola is always busy before the curtain opens. On September 8, she will celebrate her 60th birthday with the retrospective “Carolafesten – halvägs till himlen” at Södra Teatern in Stockholm, the place where it all began when she won a talent competition at the age of 11 with “Krokodilbarnets klagan.”
Actor Shima Niavarani instead chooses to walk all the way to heaven. On October 16, "Here Rests Shima Niavarani in Peace" premieres at Kulturhuset Stadsteatern in Stockholm, a requiem for our era.
Requiem
The year-end shows do not rot with the last autumn leaves either. Lena Philipsson also offers what she would rather call a summary of her 40 years as an artist. In February 2027, the anniversary show "Lena från Vetlanda" will premiere at the Chinateatern in Stockholm, with the slogan that she is also "a step into the future".
"Never say never" is the title of the concert and documentary film about Justin Bieber, which was released in 2010. He was 16 years old at the time.
"The Finale - a comical work of mourning" (script and direction by Henrik Schyffert) premieres, touring Sweden this fall, starting at Rival in Stockholm on September 3rd.
"Il Magnifico", Bo Kaspers Orkester's anniversary show, continues to tour, starting in Aarhus, Denmark on September 4, and then playing in Sweden from September 18.
"Carolafesten – half-way to heaven" will only be performed for one evening at Södra Teatern in Stockholm, on Carola's birthday, September 8th.
"Mia, myself and I – the last supper", by and with Mia Skäringer, premieres at Chinateatern on September 17.
"Here rests Shima Niavarani in peace" by and with Shima Niavarani, premiere at Kulturhuset Stadsteatern in Stockholm on October 16.
