ALICE MÅNSDOTTER VIKLUND

 
 

ALICE MÅNSDOTTER VIKLUND is a playwright, screenwriter, and director with experience in writing and directing for a variety of media, such as film, TV, podcast, theatre, and live shows. 

In 2018, Alice premiered her first play “Barnens scener ur ett äktenskap” at the Bergman Week on Fårö. Since then, she has written and directed numerous stage plays which most recently include the popular live shows "Det Skaver Live: Överallt & Ingenstans" and "Berg och Gynning Live”.

Recent work includes writing episodes for the acclaimed and successful Viaplay series "Leva Life” (season 2). The series is produced by FLX and starring Hanna Ardéhn, who plays Nora — a young and vibrant journalist, who receives terrible news: a life-threatening cancer diagnosis. Alice has also worked as a writer and dramaturge for the popular podcast sitcom "Stammis" for Spotify.

In 2020, Alice paved her way into screenwriting with her short film "Min sorg is my castle" featuring Alva Bratt, Alexandra Dahlström, and Tina Pour Davoy, which premiered on TriArt Play.

Alice is currently in development as a writer and/or director for several projects for film, TV and the stage. She is also writing her first feature film.

Human relationships are often in the centre of Alice's storytelling. In her writing, contrast is set against each other – raw meets fun, the everyday meets the grand – all while maintaining authenticity and heart. With her interest in dramaturgy, she also explores how to tell a story, regardless of genre or medium.

Alice has an educational background in drama and liberal arts, including studies at Johan Borups Hojskole in Copenhagen and the University of Gothenburg. Her career began as a director assistant at Dramaten and Kulturhuset Stadsteatern, where she gained valuable experience working in several plays.
