Since the early 2010s, the arts and culture in Sweden have taken a stand against the prevailing epistemic ignorance of the country's Indigenous Sámi people by confronting majoritarian society with the realities of settler colonialism. This article suggests that theatre and performance form part of this Sámi cultural activism and highlights the decolonial labour of Giron Sámi Teáhter, the oldest professionally driven touring company in the Swedish part of Sápmi. Taking one specific production as a springboard, the article demonstrates the larger, structural issues at stake. Giron Sámi Teáhter deploys the stage as a vibrant, decolonial forum where the history of settler colonialism and the Sámi people's struggle toward self-determination is performed, celebrated and encouraged. The company has long striven to gain official status as the national theatre for Sámi performing arts in Sweden and the article therefore also outlines the financial and political impediments encountered by Giron Sámi Teáhter.

“我们已经完成了一项国家任务”:土著表演和瑞典萨米国家剧院的斗争

自 2010 年代初以来,瑞典的艺术和文化已采取立场,反对该国土著萨米人普遍存在的认知无知,将多数主义社会与定居者殖民主义的现实进行对抗。本文认为戏剧和表演是萨米文化活动的一部分,并强调了 Giron Sámi Teahter 的非殖民主义劳动,这是瑞典萨普米地区历史最悠久的专业旅游公司。本文以一个特定的产品为跳板,展示了更大的结构性问题。Giron Sámi Teáhter 将该舞台部署为一个充满活力的非殖民主义论坛,在这里上演、庆祝和鼓励定居者殖民主义和萨米人民争取自决的斗争的历史。
