Mrs. Warren’s Profession
Bio Roy, Kungsportsavenyn 45
Five-time Olivier Award-winner Imelda Staunton (The Crown) joins forces with her real-life daughter Bessie Carter (Bridgerton) for the very first time, playing mother and daughter in Bernard Shaw’s incendiary moral classic.
Vivie Warren is a woman ahead of her time. Her mother, however, is a product of that old patriarchal order. Exploiting it has earned Mrs. Warren a fortune – but at what cost?
Filmed live from the West End, this new production reunites Staunton with director Dominic Cooke (Follies, Good ), exploring the clash between morality and independence, traditions and progress.

St Andrew's Day lunch
Haga församlingshem (Haga Östergata 30)
If you were thinking they eat haggis on this day, think again! This is an exciting experience for the taste buds, with international dishes. There will also be raffles, musical performances and a chance to buy Christmas cakes. It's held at Haga församlingshem (not at St Andrew's church).

Ghostly Tales for Christmas
GEST (Gothenburg English Studio Theatre)
Chapmans Torg 10
Join us for an evening of classic yuletide ghost stories, tales where the warmth of the season meets the chill of the unknown. Inspired by the British tradition of reading ghost stories at Christmas, we’re telling tales that are quietly unsettling, strangely familiar, and perfect for long winter nights. Step in from the cold, take your seat, and hold on tight. Join us if you dare!
