Some blursed Swedish musical news from this week:

Peter Jöback playing Jesus and Ola Salo playing Judas on a new arena tour of Jesus Christ Superstar – a tour that’s starting its run in Helsinki, of all places! I’ve been losing my mind over this a little, Jöback as Jesus is just... what. I certainly did not see that coming.

No matter what, I hope they’re smart enough to understand that if they just make Judas go “HYVÄÄ ILTAA HELSINKI!!” before he starts singing Heaven on Their Minds or whatever, they’ll have the audience eating from the palm of their hand for the rest of the night. Seriously. If you want us Finns to love you, you just need to aknowledge that we exist. That’s all we ask of you.

Also, Anders Ekborg is replacing Alex as Freddie in that arena production of Chess I have a ticket to. Hopefully because in February, Alex is still scheduled to be here in Finland playing Dan in Next to Normal? Of course, I’ve no idea how safe it’ll be to travel in February... but even if it’ll be 100% safe, I still have no idea what I’m going to do. I mean, I love Anders Ekborg, but as a replacement for Alex as Freddie?? Like, I was already wondering if Alex is getting a bit too old to play Freddie, but I guess it’s all subjective...

Swedish musical theatre!!! How I’ve missed you.

Full disclosure as funny as it would be if Mikael Persbrandt was the Swedish voice for Detective Pikachu it’s actually going to be Dan Ekborg who’s getting cast as he specializes in characters designed only with the original voice actor in mind

Jesus. O_o No, this is not the gay porn Les Mis movie we never wanted, but the Swedish 2011 Malmö production...

Wasn’t the weirdo Arbiter Rolf Skoglund though, not Rolf Lydahl? Unless you’re referring to some other production of Chess på svenska than the filmed one from 2002? Anyway, I don’t really have super strong opinions about the character of Stig in general, so not my biggest concern either way!

Something I’m happy about, though, is Fredrik Lycke as Daniel! Not a casting I could have predicted, but the more I think about it, the better I feel about it. I have only seen him live a couple of times (plus listened to the Der Glöckner von Notre Dame cast recording with him as Phoebus a billion times, of course) – but I feel he has a warm, sympathetic aura, if that makes any sense. I’m really looking forward to seeing him as Daniel!

Got to agree about their Les Mis though. Actually, if I’m being quite honest, everything I’ve seen in Malmö Opera so far has either weird but not in a good way (Les Mis and Rebecca) or just lackluster (Evita). But it’s been a while, plus I’m really excited about seeing a live musical directed by Edward af Sillén since I loved En del av mitt hjärta so much, soooo... I have high hopes!

Så som i himmelen, Malmö Opera, 2021!

I'm glad.
