Sven Grunert is the son of the Baden-Württemberg SPD politician Werner Grunert . He attended the Albert Schweitzer Realschule and later the business high school in Böblingen .

Grunert began his artistic work as a songwriter, lyricist and reciter. After a traineeship at the “Herrenberger Gäuboten”, he received his artistic training at the drama school in Bochum and made his directorial diploma at the Ulm Theater Academy. His piece Fetzer, a piece of youth was premiered in 1988 at the Ulm Theater. He spent his assistantship with Giorgio Strehler at the Piccolo Teatro di Milano and with Ken Campbell at the Royal National Theater in London . In 1990 he was co-founder and artistic director of the Center d'expression théâtrale under its president Robert Grégoire in Luxembourg .

In 1992 Grunert was elected artistic director in Landshut and then founded the small theater - Kammerspiele Landshut together with Odile Simon and Matthias Kupfer, a sponsoring association and the city of Landshut . The theater had its opening premiere with the play Liebe Jelena Sergejewna by Ludmilla Rasumowskaja, directed by Grunert. In 1996 the culture and building senate of the city of Landshut decided to renovate an urban medieval warehouse for the small theater . For “possibly the last new theater of this millennium in Germany” (according to the SZ of September 22, 1998), the theater management developed the concept of the house together with the architects Hild und Kaltwasser. In 1999 it was recognized with the German Architecture Prize .

Sven Grunert opened the new Kammerspiele Landshut in 1998/99 with his staging of Patrick Marber's play Hautnah , of which he has been director ever since. His productions have since been invited to theater festivals at home and abroad; including to the " Tollwood Festival " in Munich as well as to Zagreb and Luxembourg. His production of Antigone by Sophocles was invited in 2005 to the “International Theater Festival” in Sibiu. In 2006 Julia Koschitz received the Acting Award at the 24th Bavarian Theater Days for her performance in the title role in Grunert's production of Ibsen's Nora or Ein Puppenheim .

In 2007, Grunert's production of Beckett's Happy Days was “17th National Theater Festival "to Bucharest and to the" International Theater Festival Interferences "to Cluj. His staging of the play Nein Heisst Nein was a central component of a theater prevention project, for which the association “Power-Child eV” was honored by Deutsche Bank Munich as a “Landmark in the Land of Ideas” in 2009.

Sven Grunert lives in Böblingen and Landshut. He is the father of three children.
