What if your oldest iPhone photo held a forgotten story from the velvet rows of Kulturhuset? 🎭📸

What if a forgotten theatre ticket, a wooly sweater, and an old friend were all it took to open a time capsule? 🧵📸 November 27, 2024. I’m sitting in one of the smaller stages at Kulturhuset Stadsteatern, in the hush before curtain. I wish I could tell you what play we were about to see—but my calendar simply says *THEATRE WITH MAJSAN*. No title. No cast. Just a name.

 

Majsan. 👵✨ My friend, my theatre partner, and the one who likely got us the tickets. She works part-time as a child wrangler at Stadsteatern—still loving the theatre life even in semi-retirement. We met years ago when she was herding small actors in *Karlsson på taket*… or was it *Rasmus på luffen*? Later we reunited for *Så som i Himmelen*, her once again wrangling kids with calm determination while I zipped up costumes backstage. 🎭👕💼

In the photo, I’m wearing my chunky ERDEM x H&M sweater I found on Tradera—cozy but underused, honestly. It blends into the red velvet shadows of the seats around us. I can almost smell the curtain rope and hear the last-minute shuffles of late arrivals. 🎟️🍬👞

It’s funny how your phone hides memories you didn’t even know you’d forgotten. This one? It reminded me how theatre friendships never really fade—and how warm it feels to sit in the dark beside someone who gets it. ❤️🛋️🎭
