Royalty, film stars and other passengers are on board! Recent history and life stories are interspersed with tall tales, truths and secrets to the music of Evert Taube, Karl Gerhard and Cole Porter.

Emigration from the impoverished Sweden to the United States was at its height during the last century. The powerful shipowner Dan Broström founded Swedish American Line in 1915, and the modern and stately ship M/S Kungsholm, M/S Gripsholm and M/S Stockholm busiest route Gothenburg – New York and oceans until in 1975. The ships became an important part in the story of the “Modern Sweden” and was built and decorated by greats in engineering, architecture and design. A floating era of the Atlantic from the past to the present.

Performance in two acts with intermission.
