A mega-star in the land of the midnight sun, Carl-Einar is living proof that Swedes can offer more to showbiz than bell-bottomed jumpsuits and 70s pop anthems.

Apparently clueless yet full of brilliantly executed routines, this masterful fool, a star of La Clique, has wowed audiences worldwide with his uniquely shambolic brand of comedy, magic, music and illusion.

Now he brings his solo show to Australia for the first time – don’t miss it!

‘This blond-locked buffoon is a brilliantly silly Ikea Tommy Cooper, pulling endless magic shop tricks out of his tatty bag. Clearly a perfect addition to the dysfunctional La Clique family.’ Evening Standard (UK)

‘The golden boy is Carl-Einar Häckner, a hilariously backward comedy magician in a jumpsuit — Tommy Cooper meets Björn Again. If I laugh more at anything this Christmas , call me an ambulance.’ The Times (UK)

‘I loved the loony Swede, all manic apologetic laughs and dove-like hand gestures, he lays you in the aisles.’ The Independent (UK)
