In the building, which burned to the ground, the association Tetaerns Hus had its costume and props store.

- Yes, it's very sad. It was material from 20 years of production that went up in smoke, says Håkan Bäck, the association's treasurer.

The fire will not affect the activities of the theater association right now, but for the future this will pose major problems. Costumes, wigs and props are often reworked into new productions to keep costs down.

- We try to find out what exactly we had in the store. There were also technology and tools there. Then we have to find a new store, says Håkan Bäck.
