Freja Musikteater

Project title

Freja Musikteater

Description of initiative

Freja Musikteater is an ensemble consisting of amateur actors with diagnoses within the autism spectrum. In the autumn of 2020, the group celebrated 15 years of performances and in November 2021 the entire business was presented in a retrospective exhibition in Spira's foyer. The Freja Musikteater business has been around since 2004. It all started with their own life stories and finding a suitable way of working. The goal was to contribute to an increased quality of life of the actors. Freja Musikteater produces original performances - often based on the ensemble's own lives and experiences. Freja works with different means of expression in her designs where both voice and body can be heard. The result is lots of talent that blossoms into a properly permissive atmosphere.
