Our Team
Ida Swann
After graduating from the prestigous musical theatre college The Urdang Academy in London, Ida Swann has had a successful career in Germany. She got her professional debut in the Meat Loaf musical Bat Out of Hell and then spent
several years on roller skates in Andrew Lloyd Webber's spectacular train musical Starlight Express, covering several different roles as an on stage swing. She returns to the Starlight Express stage every now and then, as they reach out when help is needed.
As a producer she's looking forward to broaden the swedish repertoire of musical theatre!
Linda Holmgren
With over 20 years of experience as a musical performer, Linda Holmgren has performed in shows like We Will Rock You, Mamma Mia, Avenue Q, Tanz der Vampire, Bat Out of Hell, Legally Blonde, Cats, Shrek, Sound of Music, The
Fantasticks, See What I Wanna See, and the world premiere of Stephen Schwartz’s Mit Eventyr. She recently performed in Joyride the Musical at China Teatern in Stockholm, and will also be part of the cast at Malmö Opera 2026/27.
She has an immense passion for the slightly weird and not so typical kind of musicals, and in 2009 she was the leading force in the team that successfully produced Batboy the Musical at Underjorden in Gothenburg.
Linda is also a huge lover of all things funny and gory, and cannot imagine anything more perfect than combining two of her favourite things in the world, horror films and musicals.
Katarina Hatti Isaksson
Katarina, or Hatti as most people call her, has almost 20 years' of experience of different professions within the culture and arts. After her Cultural Project Leader studies at Kulturverkstan in Gothenburg she's worked as communicator,
project leader and production manager at Playhouse Teater in Stockholm, knowledge centre ShareMusic & Performing Arts, and Dragster Communication Bureau. Before that she was a free lancer, working as stage manager and tour leader for 2Entertain and Vallarnas friluftsteater. In 2009 she was also a part of the production team bringing Bat Boy the Musical to Gothenburg and stepped in as light technician for a few shows. Hatti also has a degree in English litterature and theatre studies and spends her free time as a part of the Gothenburg kent choir – she's simply a person who enjoys doing a lot of stuff!
She's also a part of the newly founded NGO Hållbart Kulturliv NU that promotes the green adjustment in Swedish cultural life.
Evil Dead 2 is a favourite of Hatti's and she's dead set on the fact that Bruce Campbell should have recieved an Academy Award for his performance. She's really looking forward to contributing to this production, as it's everything a "normal" musical is not.
Emma Mellroth
Emma graduated from Stockholm Musikalartist Utbildning at BASE23 in 2020. Since then she's done several musical theatre productions in Sweden, such as Fiddler on the Roof, Tootsie, Everybody's talking about Jamie, Änglagård
and Joyride the Musical. Last year she also had her debut in Copenhagen, as Rosalia and understudy Maria in Det Kongelige Teater's production of West Side Story, and this fall you can see her in Joyride the Musical at Malmö Opera 2026/27.
While Emma loves performing on stage, she also finds it incredibly appealing to work with a production as a whole. Working with kind, passionated and caring people is something that Emma values very highly, and something she wants to make sure the production of Evil Dead the Musical will be filled with. Well, that and a lot of blood!
