Congratulations to all the nominees for the Hedda Award! This year was extra fun in many ways. Two of the nominated shows have played, or will play, at Showbox!

"This says a lot about the high quality of performing arts for children and young people. "We think it's fantastic that young audiences across the country have the opportunity to experience award-winning performing arts through our schemes," says an excited Tine Valavuo Tyldum, CEO of Scenekunstbruket.

Nominated: best children's show and best direction

Katma Theater 's production Frida is nominated for both Best Children's Performance and Katrine Strøm for Best Director. Here you are guided into Frida's world with headphones on your ears in a tribute to courage, difference and imagination as a tool to overcome adversity. 

See Frida at this year's Showbox in November!
