East Gothland Theatre
The East Gothland Theatre (Swedish Östgötateatern) is Sweden's largest regional theatre, with stages in Norrköping and Linköping, both dating from the early 20th century, as well as touring companies. The repertoire includes Swedish and foreign drama, new plays, musicals, and classical theatre. Since 2010, the theatre has staged the European premiere of The Addams Family and the Scandinavian premieres of Come from Away and the musical Amélie. History
The theatre in Linköping was opened in 1903, while the one in Norrköping, which is slightly larger, was opened in 1908 and is in the Art Nouveau style. On its front is the motto "Proclaim the sorrow of the ages - Proclaim the joy of the ages". Both are now called  Stora teatern, or the Grand Theatre, and were designed by Axel Anderberg. The present-day combination has its origins in the Stadsteatern Norrköping-Linköping, established in 1947. The East Gothland County Theater Foundation was established in 1981 and took over from it. Since 1 January 2016, the theatrical organization has been combined with the Norrköping Symphony Orchestra into a public collective now called Scenkonst Öst AB. The owners are the Regional Council and the municipalities of Norrköping and Linköping. Notable productions
