Laboratories & Workshops

We offer you various labs and workshops in which you can playfully try yourself out on and behind the stage. While the workshops offer you the opportunity to get a taste of different areas of theater work, in the labs we work together to create a play that will be performed in front of an audience. The rehearsals of the labs take place at least once a week and include intensive rehearsal blocks. Participation is free of charge.

WORKSHOP SERIES for teachers

Summer Holiday Project: Object theater - My object in the spotlight

Lab I

15 young people from Lab I have been developing a new play entitled "Trick or treat" since January 2024: It's October. Halloween is just around the corner again. High season for all scary characters as they prepare to spread fear and terror. The supreme discipline: making people scream. Everyone has their own method. But the sinister world is upside down: the scary characters no longer want to fulfill expectations. They are always expected to show their worst side. But how do you free yourself from the expectations of others?

Premiere: Sat, 02.11.24 at 7 pm

Directed by: Sarah Kranenpoot

Lab II

Lab II is aimed at young people between the ages of 15 and 20. This season there are 2 labs in this age group.

One group in Lab II is working on the topic of "Letters", while the second group is working on the novel "Die Verwirrungen des Zögling Törless" by Robert Musil.

Both groups are already in the rehearsal process and unfortunately cannot accept any new participants.
