Children and youth culture
Skellefteå municipality works to ensure that children and young people have access to a rich, qualitative and accessible cultural offering both at school and in their free time. They should have the opportunity to take part in as many different cultural expressions as possible to be able to choose what they want to do in their spare time.
During the spring and fall, we offer a variety of dance, music and theater performances for younger audiences. The performances are aimed at different age groups, from babies to primary school children.

Spöken på rymmen (Pygméteatern)
A gatekeeper sits every evening on her chair in front of the old castle and keeps watch. No one ever comes to visit, and no one ever leaves the castle. So what exactly is she guarding year after year? The gatekeeper knows that ghosts live in the castle! But... ghosts don't really exist, do they? Or?
A playful, cozy performance with puppets, people and music.

Flodhästen och andra hästar (Teater de Vill)
Oh, how wonderful life is, thinks the Hippopotamus. She enjoys her quiet, lazy existence by the beach. Despite her age, she moves elegantly in the water and floats like a cork. The horse lives life. Dances, jumps and moves as fast as the wind. She is young and wild with a swaying mane and stately tail. One day they both meet on the beach and their whole lives are turned upside down. Who really is a horse?
