The Henschel Schauspiel Theaterverlag Berlin GmbH ( proper spelling henschel SCHAUSPIEL ) is a theater publisher based in Berlin , which grants rights of use for dramatic works to theaters, private and public broadcasters and film production companies.
The publishing house represents more than 900 authors, including many foreign-language authors (e.g. Sergi Belbel , Dario Fo , Coline Serreau , Biljana Srbljanović ), with a total of more than 2000 works. The repertoire also includes the dramatic world literature from antiquity to the twentieth century in carefully edited and modern German-language translations. Literarily challenging adaptations of fairy tales and plays for children and young people form another important program area of the publisher.
The more than 500 radio plays, the rights of which are owned by Henschel Schauspiel, include original radio plays, children's radio plays, prose adaptations as well as German-language and international plays that have been set up for radio.
Henschel Schauspiel currently represents around twenty screenwriters and film directors (including Jo Baier , Andreas Dresen , Thomas Heise , Stefan Kolditz , Regine Kühn and Laila Stieler ) and supports them in the development of film material.
The publishing house exists as an independent authors' publishing house in the form of a GmbH; it currently belongs to around 100 partners with equal rights. It was founded in May 1990 on the initiative of authors (including Peter Brasch , Volker Braun , Christoph Hein , Peter Ensikat , Heiner Müller , Bernd Schirmer , Georg Seidel , Lothar Trolle ) and translators (including Fritz Rudolf Fries , Maik Hamburger , Thomas Reschke , BK Tragelehn ). Its forerunner was the Henschel Verlag, founded in Berlin in 1946 .
Wolfgang Schuch and Andreas Leusink managed the publishing house from 1990 to 2001. Andreas Leusink and Alexander Zschiedrich have been running the business since January 1, 2017.
