The world premiere (first night) took place at the Novosibirsk opera and ballet theatre on 20 November 2021.
NOVAT presents the world premiere of Karlsson on the Roof opera by Saint Petersburg composer Anton Gladkikh with a libretto by Evgeny Fridman.

“Our production is about a dream. It’s about your childhood, when everything was possible. Every one of us was full of dreams back then, and our dreams could take us far. As kids we discovered thousands of worlds, plowed endless spaces, reached hundreds of other planets. It’s getting harder to keep dreaming with age, but it’s still important to support you’re your inner child and keep your dreams big and free. The conversation between Midge and Karlsson is basically a dialogue between youth and adulthood, an inner dialogue with yourself” – Vyacheslav Starodubtsev, Stage Director.

Karlsson, a charming red-haired trouble-maker, prankster and a very self-confident “man in his prime” is capable of making even the saddest person laugh. He appears in Midge’s life in just the right time, when the boy needs to cheer up and play some pranks! Blow up the steam machine – an easy task. Run from home and fly to a strange rooftop – a piece of cake. Drees up as a ghost to scare local burglars and steal some buns – these are the best activities to perform with your friend Karlsson. Let the family think he’s just a fantasy - they are wrong, you will see!

Karlsson on the Roof was created in 2021 after Astrid Lindgren’s trilogy specially for the Novosibirsk opera and ballet theatre. Musical score was written by Saint Petersburg composer Anton Gladkikh – member of Russian Composers Association, author of numerous orchestral, chamber, vocal works performed by Russian and foreign ensembles in Finland, Netherlands, Belgium, Ukraine and various towns of Russia. Libretto for this opera was written by Evgeny Fridman, a literary figure, a poet, a playwright, whose librettos were used for musicals and operas staged in Moscow, Saint Petersburg, Saratov and Germany. The bright costumes for the opera were designed by Elena Oleynik, and the cozy Stockholm rooftops came to life in Timur Gulyaev’s scenery. Stage Director and author of artistic concept is represented by Vyacheslav Starodubtsev.Music Director and Conductor – Evgeny Volynsky.
