Saltstänk & Smuggelsprit Tour

On the Halland coast stands "Badhotell Klitterviken" - once grand, now in the late 1920s a hotel that has clearly seen better days. It is a fact that the pompous owner Estrid (Helena Aspeflo) stubbornly refuses to acknowledge. She drives her downtrodden husband Hubert (Håkan Klamas) to maintain the appearance of an exclusive beach hotel, despite the walls telling a very different story.

It is the era of Prohibition and smuggling, and Hubert has secretly made a deal with smuggling kingpin Konrad Stålberg (Daniel Träff) - a large shipment of spirits has been delivered to the hotel at night and must be moved on. The problem is that on the same day Estrid has booked a wake for the wealthy widow Stråhle (Ewa Roos), whose late husband was chairman of Halland's temperance committee - and the widow has promised to donate a substantial sum to the hotel, provided the wake proceeds calmly and with dignity.

To make matters worse, the couple's daughter Alfrida (Jeanette Capocci) arrives to expose her suspected unfaithful lover - and has carefully hidden the fact that she recently lost her job and spent her parents' money at Gothenburg jazz clubs and dance halls. Pastor Livhed (Mikael Riesebeck), who is to conduct the memorial service, turns out to have narcolepsy and falls asleep instantly. Postman Dag-Otto Flink (Jojje Jönsson) no longer knows whether he is a postman, smuggler, waiter, or priest. And the talkative couple Rut (Annika Andersson) and Ragnar (Mikael Riesebeck) are inevitably drawn into the chaos.

With smuggled spirits in the cellar, a body in the wrong place, threatening spirits police, and a crate that never seems to contain what it should - the circus soon becomes complete. Vallarnagänget is on a major Swedish tour with this salty beach-hotel comedy. Performance length: approximately 2 hours and 30 minutes including intermission. Organizer: 2Entertain AB.
