Biography

Oscarson grew up in Skellefteå and has worked with theater at Stockholm's stadsteater, along with Suzanne Osten and Etienne Glaser.[1] She has also worked at Byteatern in Kalmar, Västerbottensteatern, and Den Konglige Teater in Copenhagen.[2] In 1997, she started the theater group Teater ML02 which has received attention with productions like Insekternas liv and Elvira Madigan.[3] Between July 2004 and April 2011, she along with Lars Rudolfsson was theater leaders for the Orionteatern in Stockholm.[4]

From May 2011 to May 2014, she was the CEO of Radioteatern at Sveriges Radio.[3] She left the job in May 2014 after being critical of her working environment and experienced a lack of support from Sveriges Radio with her ambition to work to improve and innovate the radio theater section.[5][6]

Oscarson is a known social debater, amongst others in the culture debate with visions to do theater as a forum for political and democratic talks.[3] In 2010, she released the book Att vara eller vara en vara – visioner om en annan kulturpolitik. Ahead of the 2014 Swedish general elections she wrote the book Handbok för en ny kulturminister at the request of the social service Katalys.[7]

In 2014, Oscarson worked as a leader of the ABF artist work called Socialistikt forum, with the goal to re-instate culture more in the workers everyday life.[8] Since 2014, she writes a chronicle for Dagens Nyheters culture pages.[9] She also has a podcast along with Lars Anders Johansson called "mellan Scylla och Charybdis".[10][11]

In 2018, Oscarson released Tror du att du kan förändra världen utan att anstränga dig?, a book that wants to discover ways to change the world without violence.[12]
