Emil of Lönneberga
This Autumn’s Must-See Family Musical – Packed with Mischief, Laughter, and Music!
Step into Katthult, where Astrid Lindgren’s beloved stories come to life in a vibrant new stage production at the Intiman Theatre, Stockholm.
Meet Emil, Ida, Alfred, Lina, and the unforgettable characters of Katthult – and of course Lukas, Emil’s loyal horse and companion.
Emil is kind-hearted but constantly getting into trouble! Join him on some of his most famous escapades:
when the soup tureen gets stuck on his head, when little Ida is hoisted up the flagpole, and when Emil bravely attempts to pull Lina’s aching tooth.
One outrageous adventure follows another, and each time it ends just as expected – with an exasperated father and a trip to the carpenter’s shed… where yet another wooden figure is carved.
This lively family theatre experience blends nostalgia, warmth, and high-energy performance with playful antics and irresistible music.
Featuring singing, dancing, and boundless joy, this musical is a perfect live show for audiences of all ages.
