She has sung duets with Tom Jones and has toured with artists such as Tina Turner, Celine Dion, Sarah Brightman, Kim Wilde and Robbie Williams.

On 8-9 August, Mr and Mrs Fred Jackson and Hazel Fernandes back to Ystad with guest artists for a hotly-anticipated show at the theater.

Last year, enthralled Fred Jackson and Hazel Fernandes audience during two crammed sparkling musical concerts at Ystad Theatre.

Soon they are back in town for a follow-up of musical festival.

And this time they are joined by Sweden's best rock bands and guest artists! District's son Anders Glenmark and everybody's Mamma Mia Donna Gunilla Backman complements Fred and Hazel on 8-9 August.

Like Ystad

- It will be fun to sing along with my wife again. It's not too often I and Hazel occur together, but most importantly, I look forward to coming back to Ystad theater, says Fred Jackson who only have positive impressions with him from his last visit to Ystad.

- We had really nice time during your stay and was very warmly treated by Ystad residents. The theater is absolutely stunning - it is clearly one of the finest theaters we have been to!

Which, given Fred and Hazel's CV may be regarded as a particularly good grade.

Fred Jackson during his 20 years as a musical artist, among other things, had leading roles in Fame, Footloose, Cats, Les Miserables, Beauty & the Beast, Jesus Christ Superstar, Sunset Boulevard, Evita and now Rebecca at Malmö Opera. He has Europe that labor and are 15 years living in London where he stayed after his West End debut in Jesus Christ Superstar.

Met at the scene

In the latter, the musical - where Fred played Pontius Pilate - he met incidentally his wife Hazel Fernandes (Mary Magdalene in Jesus Christ Superstar) as thus he is joined on stage again this time.

Hazel was born and raised in London, and during his career made three albums, starred in several musicals in the West End, sung a duet with Tom Jones and was lead singer with the Brand New Heavies. She has toured the world with Jamiroquai and other artists such as Tina Turner, Celine Dion, Kylie Minogue, Robbie Williams and Sinead O'Connor.

Talk about it gets votes in the class that will touch the audience in Ystad Theatre.

- It's always fun to come home to Sweden and work, said Fred who lives in London but that besides the show at Ystad Theatre is current in the musical Rebecca which is played at the Malmö Opera in the spring of 2014.

Many classics

So what can the audience in the theater expect of Musicals acid in Ystad?

Many famous songs from the musicals of course and this will be a delicate task for Fred and Hazel to pick and choose among all gems.

- Do not cry for me Argentina from Evita, Music of the Night (Phantom of the Opera) and I do not know how to love him (Jesus Christ Superstar) are pretty safe bets, like Stars from Les Miserables, and All I care about is love (Chicago) and also something from Mamma Mia with Gunilla and Anders reveals Fred.

Fred and Hazel are not the only family members who are at the stage of 8-9 August. The couple's nine year old daughter Sofia will also be involved and play a little flute.

High standard throughout

Also at the side of star duo Johansson / Fernandes class is high. The band's conductor Stefan Olsson (bassist) teacher at Pops School in Åkersberga has also played with Magnus Uggla, Orup and GES. Jörgen Ingeström (keyboards) has worked with such luminaries as Sheeba, Il Divo, Westlife and been Thomas Ledin bandmaster the past 20 years while Nicci Wallin (drums) is the son of jazz legend Bengt-Arne Wallin and has played with several Muppets, Roxette Jerry Williams and Thomas Ledin.
