Alt text: A somewhat crumpled card with images of owls at the sides, a coffee cup at the center along with a piece of (cherry) pie. The text, translated from Swedish to English: You, Kåre Jansson, are hereby warmly welcome to Dramaten 20 for damn fine coffee and a Twin Peaks-viewing extravaganza. 8:00 PM on Saturday.
I fear Micke gets bad rap. To balance things out, I share this invitation he made for one of our Twin Peaks parties. It was my birthday, so he went all out. He went to all the trouble of making an artsy invitation, printed it on card stock and then shoved it deep into his pocket, forgetting about it for an entire rehearsal. I tried to flatten out the creases, but it still looks like crap. It's fine, though. It's a reminder of how Micke was: Sweet, but a bit of an airhead.
For the non-Scandinavians, 'Dramaten' is what we call the Swedish national theatre, or the Royal Dramatic Theatre (Kungliga Dramatiska Teatern) in Stockholm. 20 was just the street number. So, this is what close friends called Axel and Micke's place.
Axel wasn't the only drama queen in the building. Let's just say that.
