Nyköpings Teater
Presumably in September 1800, Nyköpings Teater (Nyköping's Theatre) was opened.
The theatre's first manager was Johan Peter Strömberg. Some members of his company (sällskap) had other jobs besides being active at the theatre. For example, Chirstian Möller taught the violin and gave singing lessons - albeit only to women - accompanied by the piano.[1] Christ. Carlsten and Miss Ungert both worked as hatmakers, and Maria C. Strömberg started giving dance lessons after the last theatre season.[2] Maria Elisbateh Bong worked amongst others as a textile-printmaker as well as produced parasols.[3]
On 4 July 1829, there was a performance of two plays (Den häftige firaren and an epiloque with dance and couplets. It is deemed likely that the performers were amateurs.
