Yeah, that was great! I heard it on the radio by chance. I'm sorry but Stina's voice speaking is just ... I don't like when you hear the saliva-noises in people's mouths when they speak. It sounds ... icky.

There was also a "performance" of the play in Stockholm and everyone was all worked up about it - like you can't imagine. In the end it was just a stage with a tape recorder ... the old kind, with really big tape rolls. Everyone was hoping for an "aapearance". but I guess Stina fans know better.

I noticed that too. Maybe it's supposed to be like that to sound "autentic" in a way?

That's a REEL TO REEL tape recorder to all you lot under 30 years old who've been spoilt by new technology.
I recall many hours winding tape onto the damned things in the 80s. [b)]
