Folkteatern wants to create stage art of the highest class - which entertains, touches and stirs - and with a broad and humorous appeal disrupt and focus on the most uncomfortable issues. The folk theater often plays newly written plays for both children and adults, interspersed with guest performances to get a varied repertoire. The theatre's foyer is well suited for conversations and lectures, and also offers lunch theatre, theater sports, open stage and concerts. In addition, the theater tours in the Västra Götaland region.
