Jonas Gardell's exhilarating, rebellious, joyful show is on a triumphant tour across the country. Critics raved and audiences gave standing ovations. And laughed, of course. Laughed until they cried. Laughed until they fell off their chairs.
Now you can be a temporary guest in Jonas Gardell's life again and again and again! The audience laughed, cried, and cheered at Jonas Gardell's show "Temporary Guest in Your Life," which has played to sold-out houses and standing ovations throughout Scandinavia. Extra performances were added to extra performances, and the audience couldn't get enough. Now this huge success has been filmed, recorded during two magical evenings at Örebro Concert Hall. This is not a show. It is a personal ad. A playful, funny, childish, and sometimes deeply serious personal ad signed by Jonas Gardell!
Mona Bergström is a sweet eurovision-obsessed woman in her 30s. She is married to a lazy husband and has four children, all named after her favorite Swedish Eurovision popstars. Her brother is a crossdressing guy self-titled "Candy Darling". Mona works in a retirement home for disabled people, where she is responsible for taking care of a young man named David who suffers a movement-restricting disease forcing him into a wheelchair. David's parents have abandoned him, as they wanted a normal child. Mona holds a big place in David's heart, and vica versa. David's goal is to get his parents to come and visit him, and he wants to show them that he is a great person, despite his handicap. Therefore he works with music on his computer, and his goal is to create a song, send it to "The Cardigans", a famous Swedish band and have them play the song and credit him, hoping his parents would spot it and want to visit him.
