Peter is making a return visit to Eastwick this September in a new Swedish production of “Witches of Eastwick”, now called “Häxorna i Eastwick”.

The musical is based on the cult film starring Jack Nicholson as the Devil and Cher, Michelle Pfeiffer and Susan Sarandon as the titular witches. It originally opened in the West End back in 2000 and Peter was in the cast, originating the role of Michael, the son of one of the witches. Peter also sang on the original cast recording at the time.

Peter will now star as Darryl Van Horne, the Devil himself when this new production opens at Cirkus in Stockholm in September 2019. Also starring as the witches are Linda Olsson, Kayo and Vanna Rosenberg (Peter’s co-star in “Sweeney Todd”).

The show opens on 19 September 2019 and tickets are now on sale through Showtic. It is booking until 2 November 2019.

Peter included “Who’s the Man” from the original show on his “I Love Musicals” album.

Songs from “Med hjärtat som insats”

Posted on October 6, 2018 | Leave a comment

medhjartat01

Peter has created a playlist on Spotify containing his original recorded versions of the songs performed in his show “Med hjärtat som insats”.

The songs on the playlist are:

Addicted
Higher
Under My Skin
This Song of Mine
Ingen skyldighet
Jag såg mig redan där
Tiden
Somebody
Balladen om det angenärna
Han är med mig nu
Jackie
Mellan en far och en son
Jag har dig nu
Glömskans tåg
Under morgonljuset
Stoppa mig
Everybody Hurts
I’m Gonna Do It
The Mask
Shape of You
Stockholm i natt
I Feel Good and I’m Worth It

Some points to note from the show. This is based on my memory of the show so please forgive any mistakes.

“Addicted” is not the first song in the show, just the latest addition to the playlist. The rest of the playlist appears to more or less follow the order of the songs in the show.
“Higher” and “Under My Skin” are in the pre-show and not the main show. They were performed by members of the ensemble.
“Stockholm i natt” is the final song in the show. “I Feel Good and I’m Worth It” is an encore.
Another five songs from Peter’s forthcoming album were also in the show but are currently not in the playlist since they have not been released yet. “What If Tomorrow Never Comes”, “Rushing Into Love”, “I Want To Know”, “Dancing” and “Believer”.

Peter has released a third single from his new album. The song is called “Addicted” and is available digitally. The song is also featured in Peter’s current show at Cirkus.

Again, the song has been written by Peter, Tobias Fröberg, Kathryn Williams and Tobias Karlsson. It was produced by Tobias Karlsson. The gospel-sounding backing vocals were supplied by the vocal trio Resound from Atlanta, USA.

Peter has said that the song is a tribute to life and its trials. It’s about being vulnerable, honest and being able to reconcile yourself. Embracing your own story and its power.

Peter’s album “Humanology” is released in three weeks.
