Step into Emma Hamberg's fantastic universe as the bestselling novel becomes a theater production!
A liberating and inspiring performance about the female body, friendship, cultural clashes, embracing life, and the freedom to be yourself and do as you please!
When Emma Hamberg’s novel Je m’appelle Agneta was released in 2021, it became an instant success. The story of a woman breaking free from the dull chains of everyday life and finally enjoying herself is both deeply relatable and full of longing. The book has captivated readers and sold over 350,000 copies. In the fall of 2024, the hugely popular Je m’appelle Agneta finally made its way to the stage—and what a success it was!
Just like in the acclaimed novel, the female perspective is at the heart of the story. Lead actors Anna Granath and Bengt CW Carlsson bring Agneta and Einar to life on stage.
Je m’appelle Agneta premiered on October 8, 2024, at Rival in Stockholm and was later performed in Gothenburg and Malmö. In 2025, the show will embark on a nationwide tour, and in October, it arrives at Sara kulturhus!
