The Gothenburg English Studio Theatre (GEST) is a professional English-language theatre company in Gothenburg, Sweden.

Overview

The GEST was created in 2005 by Swedish actress Kristina Brändén Whitaker and British actor Gary Whitaker, a married couple who also write and direct, and has been headquartered in Gothenburg's Majorna district since 2012.[1] It works with actors and directors from Sweden and Britain to stage English-language productions,[2] and is currently the only one of its kind in west Sweden.[3] It is a non-profit theatre working both in Sweden and abroad.[4]

In 2010, the GEST participated in the Edinburgh Fringe Festival and was awarded the Fringe Review Award for Outstanding Theatre for its production of Kristina's play Expectations.[5][6] In 2015, Scenkonstgalan awarded the GEST with the Årets Katharsis prize for its production of Nick Payne's play Constellations.[7] In 2020, the GEST established its Creative Learning Department, which collaborates with schools, colleges, and universities by leading workshops and after-show discussions.[8]
