Biography
Tomas von Brömssen, born 8 May 1943 in Örgryte, Gothenburg, is a Swedish actor known for his versatile performances in theatre, film and television. He became particularly known for his role as the somewhat lost scrap dealer's son Herbert in the popular TV series Albert & Herbert. The series was a great success and established von Brömssen as one of Sweden's most beloved actors. After studying at the Statens scenskola in Malmö, where he graduated in 1969, von Brömssen began his career with Unga Teatern in Malmö and appeared early in TV productions such as Hemkomsten. He returned to Gothenburg in the 1970s and became a central figure at the Gothenburg City Theatre and the Folkteatern. During the 1980s he was also a recurring figure in revues, including at the Liseberg Theatre where he staged his own revue, Tomas' revue, which was a great success. In addition to his success on stage, von Brömssen has had a significant film career, where he has appeared in films such as Mannen från Mallorca (1984) and Mitt liv som hund (1985). He received a Guldbagge for best male lead in Bo Widerberg's Lust och fägring stor (1995), and has also been nominated for a Guldbagge for his role in Ormens väg på hälleberget (1986). As one of Gothenburg's most prominent cultural figures, von Brömssen was awarded the Göteborg Citizen of the Year award in 1995. His flexibility as an actor has made him a beloved figure both on the stage and on TV, where he has also played in TV series such as Saltön (2005, 2007, 2010) and Från regnormarnas liv (1998). In recent years, von Brömssen has continued to be active, including through his involvement in theater productions by Eva Bergman and debuting in a musical in 2023. He has also appeared in revues on a regular basis and has a passion for playing the clarinet, which he has shared with his audience in various contexts.
