Spending the day at Dramaten 🎭, Sweden's Royal Theatre, watching the eight-hour epic *Arv* (*The Inheritance*) by Matthew Lopez. 🌈✨ This modern masterpiece delves into love, loss, and the legacy of the LGBTQ+ community post-AIDS crisis. Matthew Lopez, a Tony-winning playwright, crafted this sweeping narrative inspired by E.M. Forster’s *Howards End*. It’s a tale of connection, generational trauma, and hope—told with raw emotion and sharp wit. 📝
The audience was not as full of gay men as I anticipated 🌈😂, but I did spot a few familiar faces. The show is divided into two parts with a one-hour dinner break between them 🍔, and each part has three acts separated by shorter breaks.
I first saw *The Inheritance* on the West End in London a few years ago, and it instantly became one of my all-time favorites. This Swedish production was phenomenal—easily the best play I’ve seen in 2024! 🙌👏 Directed with precision and heart, with standout performances by David Fukamachi Regnfors and Johan Holmberg 💯.
During the break, I dashed to Norrmalmstorg and grabbed two vegan burgers from Max 🍔🌱, Sweden’s beloved fast-food chain known for its innovative vegan menu options and commitment to sustainability. 🌍 I devoured them on a park bench overlooking Berzelii Park 🍃, soaking in the crisp winter air.
Part two was as mesmerizing as the first. An unforgettable day of storytelling and theatre magic! ✨🎭
