Ett hjärta i dagens läge - Riksteatern

Lisa, approaching seventy, is accused of a serious crime. During her police interrogation, she begins to tell her story - and soon she is controlling the conversation as reality slowly unravels. Something happened on the platform, but what?

Ann Petrén and Anna Wallander meet in an eerie interrogation drama with a keen eye for the melancholy comedy of everyday life. Piece by piece, the ominous puzzle of Lisa's worldview comes together: is she a victim or a perpetrator - or both?

The play is written by John Ajvide Lindqvist and directed by Anna Takanen, who previously directed Ajvide Lindqvist's "De obehöriga" at S:t Paulskyrkan in Stockholm in 2019 - the production where the character Lisa first saw the light of day. Together they create a drama about the consequences of loneliness and insecurity, and about the unwillingness to bear guilt.
