Christmas spectacle with elves and stars Merry Christmas! You say that, now that it's Christmas again. The Christmas concerts or the amaryllis, which are more common? We don't know. But there are many of us who want to join in and partake of the Christmas enthusiasm. Now this Christmas performance is not a Christmas concert in the traditional sense. We have asked ourselves: Are the little frogs really that funny to watch? And with that starting point, we have tried to create a somewhat different Christmas spectacle, but when we still started from the fundamental ingredients of Christmas. During November–December 2000, Galenskaparna and After Shave and friends put on an old-fashioned Christmas spectacle at Lorensbergsteatern. During 33 evenings, the audience was treated to inflatable Santas, Christmas celebrations with the Falke family from the 70s, a beautiful singing Ulrika Nätterdal, tap dancing with Lisa Alvgrim in the lead, breathtaking numbers with the bicycle equilibrist Malte Knapp, juggling with Johan Wellton and magic and thought-provoking observations from Carl-Einar Häckner. Allan Preussen (Claes Eriksson), the cozy presenter from En himla mång program (1989), is making a comeback with his brown leather armchair, as is Kenneth Aalborg (Jan Rippe) who is botanizing among the Christmas booze and sipping New Year's champagne. Stockholmers also got a good dose of Christmas spirit during November–December 2001 when Jul Jul Jul was staged at the Chinateatern. Curious: When Kenneth Aalborg (Jan Rippe) tried the Christmas spirit in Bingolotto's show night, he caused a minor viewer storm - despite (or perhaps because of) the fact that the sketch was hardly any embellishment of the spirit.
