Regina Lund(I)

Regina Lund was born during the rehearsals of Brecht's "Three Penny
Opera" directed by Christian Lund, her father. Her mother, Sonja Lund,
swedish actress and professional ballet dancer had the part of Polly in
that very same play and she brest fed Regina in the small dressing
rooms of the theatre during the performances. At the age of one she
came to Stockholm, and at the age of three she was left to grow up with
her father's parents in Gävle, a small city in the north of Sweden. She
learned American English at the age of four and two years later she
started attending acting schools. At the age of 13 she was singing,
dancing and acting in the local musicals and plays in Gävle. At 17 she
went on a scholarship to the US and when she got back to Sweden she was
accepted to law school but decided after a very short period there that
she had to go back to where she belonged. At the age of 21 she was
accepted to the State School of Performing Arts in Gothenburg, Sweden.
Her first part after acting school was as Ofelia in Hamlet directed by
Jan Bergman (Ingmar Bergman's eldest son), Regina received great
reviews and then hit Sweden like a bomb in one success after another.
She seduced the audience as Sugar in the musical "Some like it hot"
receiving the best female musical artist award (guld masken). She added
a singer song writer career to her already successful acting one, both
highly saluted by critics and audience. Regina is today in the process
of her fort solo album. Apart from films, tv, shows, musicals, music
projects, photography and, of course, theatre performances she just
released her first poetry book.
