Between 1995 and 1999, Helen Sj\u00f6holm delivered the performance of a lifetime at the Malm\u00f6 Opera, playing the role of Kristina in Bj\u00f6rn & Benny\u2019s musical Kristina fr\u00e5n Duvem\u00e5la<\/em>. The role served as her major breakthrough.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Finally, I get to perform a role on the main stage at Malm\u00f6 Opera again \u2013 after longing to return there for 26 years. Taking on the role of Norma Desmond in Sunset Boulevard is going to be exciting. Diving into narcissism, obsession, desperation, and a thirst for revenge \u2013 all set to Andrew Lloyd Webber\u2019s grand music, alongside director Emma Bucht, a large ensemble, and Malm\u00f6 Opera\u2019s excellent orchestra \u2013 feels like a dream, says Helen in a press release.<\/em><\/p>\n

Sunset Boulevard<\/em> is written by Andrew Lloyd Webber and is based on a 1950 Hollywood movie. The musical premiered in the UK in 1993. The director of the production at the Malm\u00f6 Opera is Emma Bucht.<\/p>\n
