Come with me as I step into the magical, chaotic, and endlessly stylish world of theatre life in Stockholm. Today marks my very first day working as a dresser and costume supervisor on a brand-new show. But as always, life is never just work—it is food, fashion, wit, and a touch of chaos.
🌟 The Morning Ritual
I rise early, at seven, because time at home is essential before diving into the day’s drama. By 09:30, I am at the theatre, settling into the atelier, already surrounded by costumes, fabrics, and possibilities. The first day is not about rushing—it is about absorbing the stage before the curtain rises.
👒 The People
I meet Lisa, our temporary production assistant, and David, the extraordinary man behind makeup and wigs. Instantly, the world comes alive. Lisa, in her Emil i Lönneberga cap—called a mysse—is already a character in the play of the day. Together we discover a linguistic comedy: “Superbra jobbat” (well done!) in Swedish sounds suspiciously like “super blow your butt” in English. Darling, one must love a workplace that delivers both theatre and slapstick. 💨😂
🌽 The Food
Lunch is a sweet corn hiyashi, cool, light, and ambiguous—sauce or dressing? Does it matter when it’s divine? My afternoon treat is a delicate red lentil pancake, proving that even snacks can carry the elegance of couture.
🧵 The Work
Of course, there is always labour behind the glamour. I spend part of the afternoon in the attic, moving costumes that have become safety hazards. It’s less “runway” and more “rafters,” but darling, this is theatre: beauty balanced against chaos.
🍅 The Evening
After work, I glide home on my bike, stopping at Ica for scandalously cheap tomatoes. At home, I craft the perfect pasta with tomato sauce. Simple, divine, the way all finales should be.
💫 Why watch this vlog?
Because it is not only about costumes or pasta—it’s about how life itself is a stage. You will see the glamour of first days, the humour of translation gone wrong, the simplicity of cheap ingredients made chic, and the theatre of everyday life.
