“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and through it all things came to be; without it, nothing came to be. In it was life, and the life was the light of humans. And the Word became flesh.” 

/Störstorden, Torgny Lindgren

In the autumn of 2026, two well-known actors from Västerbotten will take on the artistic challenge of transforming Torgny Lindgren's rich prose into a theatrical experience. Störstorden will come to life through Mattias Fransson, who has previously been seen in works like Klungan and Mammas nya kille, and Ellenor Lindgren, who has spent significant time in the world of Sara Lidman, but is now tackling Torgny Lindgren.

It will be a grotesque and grandiose staging where Lindgren's short stories meet two of Västerbotten's brightest narrators and personas.

In collaboration with:

Sara Ribbenstedt - choreographer   

Helena Lindegren - humor consultant and directing eye   

Johanna Salander - artistic director and director of Västerbotten Theatre
