Our operations >> Theater and Stage Programs

No one have missed that Lund is the place where the spex flourish. As many as six spex are connected to AF. For those who are not interested of spex there are of course also other kinds of stage programs you can get involved with. For example you can paint with words on stage with Ordkonst, try out theater play or help out with the stage programs for the carnival. Here you can read about all the stage programs that AF can offer you.

Boelspexarna

Boelspexarna is one of two comedy-clubs (a pantomime, of sorts) within the Academic Society. Within Boelspexarna there are about 100 students involved, doing completely voluntary work with everything from painting decor, doing makeup, sewing clothes, cooking and working in the bar. On stage, there are solely girls but everything else is open to both boys and girls to take part of and get involved in. As a student in Lund, you have not only the opportunity to engage in spex, but also be part of the great spex audience.

Lundaspexarna

Lundaspexarna is one of Lund's most famous spex clubs and are set up twice a year - one around last April and one around last November. Lundaspexarna both preserve and renew the comedy tradition by for the spring performance putting up a classic show while the one in the fall is often newly written. Prior to each new production, Lundaspexarna host an event where all members of the Academic Society can show interest and sign up to join.

Lust - Lund's Student Theater

Lund’s Student Theater produces plays a few times each year - both classics and self-written, and frequently in English. They also often arrange acting and improv exercises and cultural or improv cafés every once in a while, which of course are open for anyone to attend. They need a lot of excited people that are interested in improving their acting or improv skills, help cook for various dinners, organize fun events, do makeup, sew clothes, help with set design or technology. Having a producer and director is of course also extremely important!

ORDKONST

Ordkonst publishes a literary magazine with essays, critiques, reportage and fictional pieces. Moreover, they host writing-circles, film-circles and reading-circles, as well as theater. At Ordkonst there is something for everyone who is interested in literature and culture. If you want to know more about the activities, take part in one of the events or get the latest issue of the magazine, do not hesitate to contact the committee.

HALLANDSSPEXET

Hallandsspexet has been the setting of many great memories shared among spexare and audiences alike since 2008. We practice, build, sing and sew at Hallands Nation before performing on the great stage at Stenkrossen in Lund. There is a place at Hallandsspexet for everyone!

Jesperspexet

Jesperspexet, an organization with a background at Lund University of Technology, is a student "spex" with a mixed stage ensemble that puts on spex performances on the main stage in AF borgen. The first spex in the Great Hall, and longest running, where everyone gets a chance to be part of everything! The spex is set in February but the organisation tries to arrange fun events year-round. It is a non-profit association of over 100 people who works very hard to give you a show that you won't forget. Democracy ruled where everyone can participate and decide next year's theme for the spex. If you have questions about performances, or want to rent performances, or just want to laugh and have fun with us, just write to us via our website or our social media channels!

LUNDAKARNEVALEN

Lundakarnevalen is held every four years and is organized by around 5000 of Lund’s students that turn Lundagård into a large carnival area. Every carnival has a theme and last year’s theme was Katatstrofalkarneval (catastrophic-carnival). The next Lundakarneval will be held in May 2026!

Toddyspexarna

Toddyspexarna has around 115 members who spend the entire month of March to work toward a common goal - to produce a show that will hit southern Sweden with amazement. While doing this, they have a really fun and crazy month. Since 1979 it has also re-produced their show at the City Theater in Ystad.

Var GladSpexarna

Var Gladspexarna is a nation-free and union-less spex club that is striving in Lund. It is a stimulating place for creative people to express themselves and create new relationships in a safe environment. The student association has been active since 1998 and continues to produce hilarious performances every semester in the concert hall of AF-borgen.
