A Swedish production of DD is planned for 2012... and to begin the process, casting of Johnny/Penny/Baby will begin at the end of this month. David had planned to go for the 3-day "Finals," but I had no plans to go. It seemed that casting -- or at least casting the 3 leads -- would be taken care of internally, as it would be a cost to fly me out and house me, etc. I was okay with this, since it's just for 3 days and I appreciate the cost-saving needs. As the preliminary audition days drew near, however, the local people realized what a difficult and particular task casting DD presents. They have now asked me to come for the preliminary round of auditions.
So I fly out to Stockholm a week from today (24th)! And David will arrive on the 29th.
This will be my first trip to Sweden, or anywhere in Scandinavia for that matter. All I know about Stockholm and Sweden comes from the "Girl with the Dragon Tattoo" books.
