"The Secret Life Of Vegetables"
- a musical with Christian Veltman from 1986.

We created a "vegetable village", invented a bunch of interesting inhabitants, wrote a musical script (with some help from Stig Olin, Beppe Wolgers and Peter Dalle)

We had negotiations with a major theater in Stockholm for setting up the thing. Last - but not least - we wrote a lot of great songs and lyrics.

We had a deal with the licensing company Alicom for marketing & merchandicing, an animated pilot produced by Sequence Cartoon (Goliat's creators), scheduled for prime time airing on a saturday in swedish national television...

But then someone went and killed Swedens prime minister just
two days before the press conference that would launch the whole thing.

Under those circumstances, the presentation of a new swedish family entertainment concept became less important, so I guess that's when the whole thing died more or less. The LP album was released by CBS records though and Sweden Music published the book with the story, illustrations, songs and lyrics.

Realizing the recording was possible thanks to the great talents of the many singers and actors giving life to our 'veggies' ; CarlGustav Lindstedt, Lasse Åberg, Ulf Brunnberg, Jonas Hallberg, Lena Ericsson, Roger Pontare, Michael B. Tretow, Peter Lundblad, Janne Schaffer, Johannes Brost, Hasse Andersson, Stig Törnroos, Totte Wallin, Rune Sundby, Micke Bolyos and Cina Strandberg.
