Livets teater is the second album by the Swedish pop and rock artist Magnus Uggla. It was released in 1976. The album reached the 28th place at the Swedish album chart.

In the documentary movie Rockdokumentären, Magnus Uggla stated that he was heavily inspired by the progressive rock bands Yes and Genesis during the writing and recording of this album.

Uggla said in 2000 that it was, in his opinion, the worst album he has made.^[1]

Sommartid

"Sommartid" was the first single released by Magnus Uggla and it became a minor hit. It was later re-recorded for Uggla's 1981 live album Godkänd pirat, and remixed for a rare promotion EP in 1986. In 1978, it was covered by Uggla's live band Strix Q for their first solo album.

The 1986 remix of "Sommartid" was featured in the 2010 movie Snabba Cash.

In 2012, Maja Ivarsson recorded and performed "Sommartid" for the TV show Så mycket bättre.
