** For Helen Sjöholm as Kristina - she's had a long and successful career in Sweden as one of the country's most beloved singers and musical actresses, and is also so iconic in the role of Kristina that she was the only original cast member to appear in the English language concert version.
** Peter Jöback, who played Robert. He wasn't entirely unknown before, having among other things voiced the titular character in the Swedish dub of Disney's ''WesternAnimation/{{Aladdin}}'', but the role of Robert, and the massive hit song "Gold Can Turn To Sand", turned him into a superstar in his native Sweden, and launched a successful career as a musical actor abroad. He's appeared as Chris in ''Theatre/MissSaigon'' (winning the role after auditioning with the aforementioned song ''in Swedish''), originated the role of Michael in ''Literature/TheWitchesOfEastwick'', and has played the titular ''Theatre/ThePhantomOfTheOpera'' in London, New York and Sweden (being asked by Creator/AndrewLloydWebber himself to play the role - not to mention being Lloyd Webber's personal choice to play the Phantom when the show celebrated 30 years on Broadway).
