As an actor she was particularly associated with the work of Ingmar Bergman, though in 1965 she performed the lead role in Miss Julie for BBC Television. She also played the key-role of The Mummy in Bergman's staging of Strindberg's The Ghost Sonata in 1998-2000, a performance that earned her much critical acclaim.

Currently (2009) directing the Jon Fosse play Flicka i gul regnjacka (Girl in Yellow Raincoat) at Dramaten, starring Stina Ekblad and Irene Lindh, which premiered on October 9.
