Malmö Mon Amour
Nils Ahlroth was 52 years old when he got his big break. After working as a vaudeville artist since leaving school, he was best known as a female impersonator. If he couldn't amuse the audience in that capacity, Ahlroth used to ride around the stage on a unicycle, telling jokes.
In 1972, however, Swedish TV planned to launch a new family series. "NP Möller, Fastighetsskötare" was about a caretaker in a big apartment building in central Malmö. In the lead role, the director wanted someone who was unknown to the general public. And Nisse Ahlroth proved to be perfect for the part. After only a few episodes, it was clear that the viewers had taken the old vaudeville artist to their hearts. Excessively popular, the series was produced for a full six seasons. Something quite unique for that time in Sweden.
But when the curtain went down for "NP Möller" in 1980, it also meant the end of Nils Ahlroth as a major star. He did get some supporting roles in the coming years, but nothing compared to his television heyday. So, when he passed away in 1991, Nils Ahlroth was back on the local vaudeville circuit where he once had started.
