Latabæjarhátíð í Höllinni Festival 2010

Oh, I didn't mean it that way! I was just wondering, is all...

And it gave me an excuse to make a reference to The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy BBC TV series...

We will be restoring normality as soon as we are sure what is normal anyway. Thank you.

„Þetta er alveg frábært og kemur mikið á óvart,“ segir Unnur Eggertsdóttir, 17 ára Verslunarskólamær sem hefur verið valin úr hópi mörg hundruð umsækjenda til að leika hið eftirsótta hlutverk Sollu Stirðu í Latabæ.

Áheyrnarprufur hafa farið fram að undanförnu og voru áhugasamir umsækjendur á breiðu aldursbili, þeir máttu þó ekki vera eldri en 28 ára. Unnur er þrátt fyrir ungan aldur komin með reynslu af leiksviðinu. Hún leikur nú um stundir í Versló-söngleiknum Thriller sem byggður er á tónlist Michael Jackson og er settur upp í Loftkastalanum.

Hún hefur staðið á sviði síðan hún var 8 ára gömulæ. „Ég er búin að æfa dans síðan ég var mjög lítil og er einnig búin að æfa söng. Ég bjó í Kaliforníu frá 8 ára til 12 ára aldurs og þar byrjaði ég í áhugamannaleikhúsinu,“ segir hún.

En hvaða þýðingu hefur það fyrir Unni að vera komin með hlutverk Sollu Stirðu? „Ég á að koma fram á Latabæjarhátíðinni í lok mars og svo taka við allskonar skemmtanir eins og til dæmis á 17. júní.“ segir hún.

She does look like Linda. Also the article says something about the 17th June, maybe that's when she starts being Stephanie? I really want to see her in action.

"It's really great and a big surprise," says Unnur Eggertsdóttir, a 17-year-old Business School girl who has been chosen from among hundreds of applicants to play the coveted role of Sollu Stirdu in Latabæ.

Auditions have been held recently and there were interested candidates in a wide age range, although they could not be older than 28 years. Despite her young age, Unnur has experience on the stage. She currently plays in the Versló musical Thriller, which is based on the music of Michael Jackson and is staged in Loftkastalan.

She has been on stage since she was 8 years old. "I have been practicing dance since I was very small and I have also been practicing singing. I lived in California from the age of 8 to 12, and that's where I started in amateur theater," she says.

But what does it mean for Unni to have the role of Sollu Stirðu? "I'm supposed to perform at the Latabær festival at the end of March, and then we'll have all kinds of entertainment, for example on June 17," she says.

Awwwww, she looks really sweet. I like her a lot already. I'm having a much harder time getting used to new actors playing Sportacus than Stephanie, perhaps because Magnus has always been Sportacus whereas Stephanie has had loads of actresses over the years, though I can't deny that Julianna is iconic.
