Are you interested in writing for children and young people?

If so, please apply to our writing residency.

  
Unga Dramaten is part of the Royal Dramatic Theater in Stockholm and exists to create performing art for children and young people between the ages of 3–16\. We strive to make brave, innovative and generous art that puts children at the forefront of the experience. We believe that high quality performing art is important at all stages of life and aim to present newly written works to our audiences.

  
Unga Dramaten wants to act as a greenhouse for emerging artists, but also to make room for experienced artists to further develop their artistry. We aim for this Residency to act as a platform where new meetings, exchanges and artistic exploration can take place.

  
The Writing Residency for young audiences launched in 2023 and is aimed at professionals working within the performing arts or academia who want to explore an idea, question or theme for children and young people aged 3–16 years old.

* A reading with actors from the theatre

  
The residency participant is expected to be present during the entire period, 13th of May to 10th of June.
