Wednesday 10 June: Tube Strike!
Luckily the Jubilee Line was up and running for the World Cup encounter at Wembley stadium. More importantly, the line passes Neasden Tube Station, a fifteen minute walk to Ikea!
For four nights, the "Flat Pack Opera" was performed in the store.
We followed the viola playing lady between the display rooms, introducing the audience to short segments of modern life played out in operatic style amongst the slick Swedish interiors. Ikea coloured blue and yellow mimes/muses ushered us to sit in the pathways to view the scene. It was a project of randomness enjoyed by some while interrupting other unsuspecting customers during their pleasant night's shopping.
But who is to complain when there's a dinner of Swedish Meatballs and a dessert of Daim cake at the end of the show? Why, it's like you're in Sweden all over again!
Item 47: Ikea? CHECK!
