The cult-declared children's program Trazan & Banarne, with Lasse Åberg and Klasse Möllberg in the roles, entered the TV box in 1976 and aired in 1982. In the musical that will premiere in October next year, the story has been adapted to the present - with the climate threat in focus.

- The musical gets a little proggy in that way, says Lasse Åberg to DN.

But there will be no return for him or Klasse Möllberg in the roles of Trazan Apansson and Banarne. The main roles should instead be made by "young and talented musical actors".

A hit cavalcade

The humor in the musical should suit the whole family and the music is taken from Electric Banana Band's song catalog.

- I have written a document based on the old songs, such as Zwampen, My piraya Maja and Banan contact, and then I and Janne Schaffer have written and tailored some new songs for the new characters. So it will be a hit cavalcade, mixed with new material, Lasse Åberg tells the magazine.
