– It has been very fun to add the first season’s program. Riksteatret have a very good reputation, and has really only one challenge – the actors must be so long on the road. They have a privacy to take into account and also other obligations, so it comes to be early, a few the best, says Remlov.
Called Life
The program for next fall, First released in June, but it is already clear that Remlov’ve got Liv Ullmann to create theater of his own film “Confidential conversations”, built on Ingmar Bergman’s script. The play will also be displayed at the National Theatre and probably also on Swedish Dramaten.

– Fire and flames

He says Ullmann spent a summer think before she said yes.
– She had whatsoever not thought of that “Confidential conversations” could give substance to the scene. Now she is on fire, says Remlov.

Peripherals to the center
