A one-woman music theatre show inspired by the life of Abba's Frida Lyngstad. The lights design set the stage for her long awaited comeback performance. A light object was incorporated into the decor and used to move the performance from the character's memories of the past, hopes for the future, to her present situation, recovering in a medical facility having been recently woken from a cryogenic coma.

Concept and performance: Annette Hilderbrand
Script and direction: Bas Beerendonk
Composition and performance: Robert van der Tol
Light design: Vinny Jones

Premiered July 2006 on location at NDSM terrain for Over het IJ Festival, Amsterdam, The Netherlands.
