She receives it for the plays "Anna Vnuk is the Bastard" (Unga Klara) and "I Sacrifice Myself" (Kulturhuset Stadsteatern), with the motivation that she, with her playful seriousness, can capture "any audience whatsoever".

The Children's and Youth Theatre Prize goes to Tubo & Co, for the play "Avig", by choreographers Hugo Therkelson and Tobias Ulfvebrand and director Martin Hasselgren. With dance, they show "the struggle to fit into a growing body and a changing existence".

The Swedish Theatre Critics' Association's Dance Prize is awarded to choreographer and director Gunilla Heilborn for "Dante", which takes its starting point in the medieval poet Dante Alighieri's life. The jury particularly highlights her ability to move between dance, philosophy, and image.
