Niklas Strömstedt – Like Me

Niklas Strömstedt comes to Trollhättan in autumn 2026. I’ve always found it both fun and challenging to do something more than just a straightforward concert when I get the chance to meet an audience. Over the years, I’ve wrestled with temperamental slide projectors, had heated dialogues with myself in the form of a life-size cardboard cutout, ridden in a triumphal chariot wearing gladiator armour, and even toured with a real therapist who held therapy sessions with me on stage between songs.

In 2023, the book “OM Niklas Strömstedt” was published, a journey through both the private life and the more public career. While working on the book, the idea was born to make it the very foundation of a stage production too. Which songs made the hairs on my arms stand on end? What did Evert Taube say when he called? How do you get out of that paralysing, destructive silence—and when a turkey suddenly hangs under your chin, what the hell do you do? And love—can you make sense of it?

That’s where we are when the curtain rises. TYCK om mig or Tyck OM mig! Welcome to more than just a concert!
