Oscarsteatern or ''"Oscars"'' (in English: The Oscar Theatre) is one of Stockholm's private theatres and is the best-known musical theatre in Sweden. It is located at Kungsgatan 63 in central Stockholm. It was built in 1906 and named after King Oscar II. The opening production was ''Frihetsbröderna (Les brigands)'' by Jacques Offenbach, on 6 December the same year. The theatre has during the years been seen as the foremost stage for musical productions and operettas in Sweden. The theatre has 905 seats and for many years in the early 20th century was part of Albert Ranft's theatre empire. Rosa Grünberg worked there. Over the years it has boasted some great musical productions, including several successful stagings of ''My Fair Lady'' (the 1959–61 run reaching 766 performances) and the 1989–95 run of ''The Phantom of the Opera'' (performed 1173 times). The original Swedish (and European) staging of ''Nine'' in 1983 is also among the most successful – and critically acclaimed – productions in the theatre's history. The theatre was managed until 1926 by Albert Ranft, from 1926 to 1947 by Gösta Ekman (senior) and Pauline Brunius among others (it was used in this period solely as a stage for spoken drama), and from 1947 to 1998 by Sandrews (this period is often described as the theatre's "golden days" in terms of musical theatre shows). Since 2004 it has been managed by Vicky von der Lancken and her 2Entertain AB production company. In the autumn of 2006 the theatre celebrated its 100th jubilee with a colourful production of ''Singin' in the Rain''. ==External links== *(Oscarsteatern.se ) (official site - non English) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Oscarsteatern」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
