What if Backstage Was Its Own Show?

These are the oldest photos on my phone, taken on December 16, 2023, backstage at the theatre. It’s a peek into the incredible world behind the curtain, filled with talent, fun, and a little chaos.  

The first photo captures Jenny Holmgren, an actress who could effortlessly star in *Funny Girl*. Here, she’s wearing her funeral blouse for the show, along with a perfect wig—proof that she can blend humor and heart.  


 The second shot features Sofia Pekkari, rocking a red vinyl bodysuit reminiscent of Britney Spears and pulling a hilarious face. Her energy is unmatched!  


In the third photo, Lindy Larsson looks enchantingly demure during a quick change—a rare moment of calm in the bustling backstage world.  


Next, we have the talented makeup and wig designer David Julio with Hjalmar Freij, dressed in full drag for the top of Act Two. Hjalmar’s transformation is flawless—he truly owns the stage!  



The fifth photo shows David again, holding Hanna Ullvan’s wig while waiting for a quick change at the start of the second act. Behind them, Gustav, the sound operator, checks his phone—a classic backstage multitasking moment.  


Lastly, Joakim Jennefors steps into Tommy Körberg’s shoes as an understudy, complete with the iconic banana hat. It’s a bittersweet nod to the teamwork and dedication that keeps the show running.  


These photos remind me of the magic and camaraderie that happen behind the scenes—moments just as entertaining as the performance itself.
