Diyari Mahmoud – Come on, grow up!
- From 350 SEK
- Linköping Konsert & Kongress
- Organizer: Kulturaktiebolaget
Growing up in Sweden is easier said than done. Take your place, but don’t stand out. Aim for the stars, but stay in the treetops. Be yourself, but feel free to adapt to your surroundings. Whether you are a boy, a girl, or something in between, the feeling is that no one really knows how the road to adulthood goes. Least of all those who are actually adults.
In “Jalla, väx upp,” Diyari Mahmoud invites the audience on a crazy journey through all parts of life. From the happy (but not always so secure) childhood where a boy, besides playing football, sometimes also doubles as the family’s electrical tester.
“Jalla, väx upp” is the sequel to Diyari Mahmoud’s acclaimed debut show “Lagom Halal” and is Diyari’s way of trying to understand his present time. As an adult man, he dissects his surroundings, from the difference between pedagogical Swedish parents to Kurdish fathers who haggle over the ransom for a child’s kidnapping. He remembers being sent to school with a 40-degree fever to now fighting over who gets to stay home for child care for the day.
For now, Diyari is a parent himself, and he will guide his children to adulthood. In “Jalla, väx upp,” you get the answer to how well Diyari succeeds in his mission. Share his feelings about the cultural clashes that can arise when trying to grow up and fit in in Sweden and laugh out loud at the (forbidden) thoughts no parents dare to say out loud.
