Among her other roles, Andreasen was the theatre director at the National Theatre of Greenland (Nunatta Isiginnaartitsisarfia) from 2016 to 2023, with overall responsibility for the theatre and school of acting.

Andreasen holds a bachelor\u2019s degree in dramaturgy from Aarhus University and a professional management qualification.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m very much looking forward to listening to artists and cultural practitioners and to being able to support and develop the industry together with them. I believe that both NAPA as an institution and the vision of Arctic perspectives being seen and recognised in the Nordic Region are important,\u201d says Andreasen.<\/p>\n

Andreasen will take up her new position as director of NAPA on 1 September. She succeeds S\u00f8ren W\u00fcrtz.<\/p>\n

NAPA is a cultural institution under the Nordic Council of Ministers and has its office in Greenland\u2019s capital, Nuuk.
