Panic! In Swedonia.
The King is dead and the prince next in line to the throne is unmarried – if he doesn’t find someone soon he must forfeit the crown!
In New York City, baker Aaron Butcher is butchering his career as a family baker. Maybe a commission in the non-location-specific country of Swedonia will fix his problems…
Following the sold-out, award-winning shows Gwyneth Goes Skiing and Diana: The Untold and Untrue Story, Awkward Productions are back with a brand new show that Flicks through the Net of traditional holiday movies, bringing all their Hallmarks together in the signature awkwardprods way – queer, chaotic, comedic and heartfelt.
Written by and starring Linus Karp and Joseph Martin, with original music by Leland and multiple surprise cameos (including from faces you know from Heartbreaker, UK Drag Race, Royals, and the one and only TOVE LO!) this highly anticipated show is as much a love letter to Karp’s native Sweden as it is a subversion of heteronormative romcoms.
With over 10 five-star reviews (and counting)- grab your bags, you’re going to Swedonia!
