Black Box Teater Oslo

Black Box teater was founded in 1985. It is one of the programming theaters in Norway, co-producing and presenting international and Norwegian contemporary performing art.

With a history of more than 30 years, Black Box teater has transformed to become what it is now: a theater with a strong artistic identity, dedicated to contemporary and experimental forms of performing art, programming Norwegian and international companies, emerging and established artists. The programme is characterised by a combination of artists who have a long relationship with Black Box teater and newcomers from Norway and elsewhere.

They are a theater that is attentive to experimentation and to transformation of performing arts today. Their programme crosses disciplines, pays attention to multifaceted artists, and proposes connections with visual arts, music and literature, among others. In order to encourage spectatorship from an early age and generations, the programme includes shows for kids/youth and families.
