Audience and actors at the same table: "I love it"

The regional theater Blekinge Kronoberg is currently planning an anniversary performance by putting on the play "The Party" which is about a crack in the perfect family idyll. An idyll that, during the evening's festivities, crackles around the table where the audience sits. Léonie Vincent is one of the actors.

- So, I love it! It's an idea that I embark on. It really is a "nice feeling" where it is at its best. I love to play and the more the better. I have no experience playing this close to the audience, it feels unique, says Léonie.

The play, which is one hour and 40 minutes long, will premiere in Växjö on March 7 next year. Therese Willstedt, CEO and performing arts director for the regional theater Blekinge Kronoberg is pleased with the choice of play.

- What we agreed on is that it should be festive and grand, that it should show our muscles and what we can do artistically. At the same time, we want to tell a story that is current and important today, says Therese.
